How Can I Draw A Line In Xbox Directx?

QUOTE (CptanPanic @ Mar 31 2003, 11:41 AM)
I am trying to draw lines, but there doesn't seem to be any line drawing support in the Xbox's version of directX, what would be the best way to draw a line?  Note I want to use line drawing to make a shape with 1024 verticies that move every frame.  It is for a Spectrum Analyzer.
Thanks,
CP

It's easy to do in Direct3D.... use DrawVerticesUP() method with  D3DPT_LINELIST to draw lines between vertices.

It uses pairs of vertices, so you can include a whole set of lines in a single call (For example, with 6 points, it will draw 3 lines - none of them need to be connected)
