Is there a simple way to create an octagon in Vector? The shortest method I can come up with is to create 2 squares with one rotated at 45 deg. and then break on intersections and delete the extra pieces. Surely there is a simpler way to do this that im overlooking. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Draw a vertical line pointing counterclockwise and Cut paste it with Z rotation set to 360 and number of copies set to number of sides (8) in this case. Trim. One of the exercises from our class.
