I assume you mean making the individual lines multicolored. You can't do that - each line (between two points) can only be one color. You could make a number of points in each line, but in this instance I don't know how you'd do that.

Yeah, Artero's right. You need to break down the lines. You could work something out with the modulus operator. Set the number of lines per side, then the number of sides, and get n from that. Turn i into integer vaues with something like p=i*n-i, and at p%lps==0 start on the new side.

Once you get past the grammar (er?), I THINK he's asking how to fill the polygon. Short answer: you really can't with a dynamic shape, as far as I've been able to determine.

I assume you already have a filled superscope...

If splitting up each line is too hard, you can cheat: draw everything in white with a fat line width and multiply it with another buffer/layer containing the colours.
