Ok, I must confess that I don't quite understand the question.

If you look at how the demo does it, it creates a line and adds two
line control points. This makes the line attach to the edge of the shapes.

I'm not quite sure how you would manage to do otherwise. Could you
perhaps put together an example of your problem?


And just to be practical, Brian's questions:

I used the old OGL docs (you'll have to google for them) and the source to
learn OGL. That, and lots of trial and error (the docs weren't always
correct).

The C code translated quite nicely to python, so there really wasn't much
to alter. Apart from the occasional bug fix.
