The [_MAPTRIANGLE](_MAPTRIANGLE) statement maps a triangular portion of an image onto a destination image or screen page.

## Syntax

### 2D drawing

> [_MAPTRIANGLE](_MAPTRIANGLE) [{_SEAMLESS}] **(**sx1**,** sy1**)-(**sx2**,** sy2**)-(**sx3**,** sy3**),** source& **TO (**dx1**,** dy1**)-(**dx2**,** dy2**)-(**dx3**,** dy3**)**[, destination&][{_SMOOTH|_SMOOTHSHRUNK|_SMOOTHSTRETCHED}]]

### 3D drawing (hardware images only)

> [_MAPTRIANGLE](_MAPTRIANGLE) [{_CLOCKWISE|_ANTICLOCKWISE}] [{_SEAMLESS}] **(**sx1**,** sy1**)-(**sx2**,** sy2**)-(**sx3**,** sy3**),** source& **TO (**dx1**,** dy1**,** dz1**)-(**dx2**,** dy2**,** dz2**)-(**dx3**,** dy3**,** dz3**)**[, destination&][{_SMOOTH|_SMOOTHSHRUNK|_SMOOTHSTRETCHED}]]

## Parameter(s)

* The **_SEAMLESS** option makes the triangle skip the right-most and bottom-most pixels of the triangle. When you make larger objects using several triangles, there can be a "seam" where they overlap when using alpha transparency and the seam would be twice as bright. **_SEAMLESS** is ignored when rendering 3D content and is not yet supported when drawing 2D hardware images.**
* For 3D drawing use the **_CLOCKWISE** and **_ANTICLOCKWISE** arguments to only draw triangles in the correct direction. See *Example 4*. 
* Coordinates are [SINGLE](SINGLE) values where whole numbers represent the exact center of a pixel of the source texture. 
* source& and optional destination& are [LONG](LONG) image or screen page handles. 
* Supports an optional final argument **_SMOOTH** which applies linear filtering. See *Example 3*. 
* Use **_SMOOTHSTRETCHED** or **_SMOOTHSHRUNK** for when a pixelated/smooth effect is desirable but not both.

## Description

* This statement is used similar to [_PUTIMAGE](_PUTIMAGE) to place triangular sections of an image, but is more flexible.
* The [STEP](STEP) keyword can be used to for coordinates relative to the last graphic coordinates used.
* For 2D drawing, the destination coordinates are pixel coordinates either on-screen or on the destination image.
* For 3D drawing, the destination coordinates represent left (-x) to right (+x), bottom (-y) to top (+y) & furthest (-z) to nearest (z=-1). The center of the screen is therefore (0,0,-1). Note that a z value of 0 will result in off-screen content. The furthest visible z value is -10,000.
* When drawing **software images** coordinate positions are **limited from -16383 to 16383**
* The source coordinates can be positioned outside the boundary of the *source* image to achieve a tiled effect.
* If the destination& image handle is the current [SCREEN](SCREEN) page, [_DEST](_DEST) or hardware layer, then it can be omitted.
* **Hardware images** (created using mode 33 via [_LOADIMAGE](_LOADIMAGE) or [_COPYIMAGE](_COPYIMAGE)) can be used as the source or destination.

## Example(s)
