# Adding a Single Polygon (Shortcut 'a')

1. After pressing 'a' move the mouse over any Orthographic View window and you will see a small red cursor. Click in three different positions to specify the three vertex positions for the polygon.
2. When clicking in one of the Orthographic windows you are only specifying two axis positions, for example with the X/Z Orthographic window you are specifying the X and Z position for the vertex. The position for the third axis remaining is always taken from the yellow Locator position.
3. Note that in the middle of this process you may click any yellow Locator line over any Orthographic View window to adjust the third axis value.
4. Guideline planes and other vertexes will attract the cursor.
5. The font face of the polygon is determined by the order in which the points are added, clockwise or anti-clockwise.
6. Press ESC to cancel the operation.
