ArcGIS Pro 3.4 API Reference Guide
ArcGIS.Core.Geometry Namespace / PolygonBuilderEx Class / CreatePolygon Method / CreatePolygon(Envelope,SpatialReference) Method
The envelope to create the polygon. Note that if the envelope has Z-values, they will be interpolated for the upper right and lower left vertices.
(Optional) The SpatialReference. The default value is null. If spatialReference is null, then the spatial reference will be inherited from envelope.
Example Version

CreatePolygon(Envelope,SpatialReference) Method
Convenience method to create a new instance of the Polygon class.
Syntax
public static Polygon CreatePolygon( 
   Envelope envelope,
   SpatialReference spatialReference
)

Parameters

envelope
The envelope to create the polygon. Note that if the envelope has Z-values, they will be interpolated for the upper right and lower left vertices.
spatialReference
(Optional) The SpatialReference. The default value is null. If spatialReference is null, then the spatial reference will be inherited from envelope.

Return Value

Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
envelope is null.
Remarks
HasZ, HasM and HasID attributes are inherited from the input envelope.
Example
Construct a Polygon - from an Envelope
// Use a builderEx convenience method or use a builderEx constructor.

MapPoint minPt = MapPointBuilderEx.CreateMapPoint(1.0, 1.0);
MapPoint maxPt = MapPointBuilderEx.CreateMapPoint(2.0, 2.0);

// Create an envelope
Envelope env = EnvelopeBuilderEx.CreateEnvelope(minPt, maxPt);

Polygon polygonFromEnv = PolygonBuilderEx.CreatePolygon(env);

PolygonBuilderEx polygonBuilderEx = new PolygonBuilderEx(env);
polygonBuilderEx.SpatialReference = SpatialReferences.WGS84;
polygonFromEnv = polygonBuilderEx.ToGeometry() as Polygon;
