Gimp Python script to do same thing as Free Select Tool - sbhairava72 - 01-17-2018
I can use the 'Free Select Tool' to draw polygons.How do I use Gimp Python-fu to do the same thing?
Should I use this?: pdb.gimp_edit_stroke_vectors(drawable, vectors)
If so, I don't know what to do for the vectors parameter. I tried treating it like an array of coordinates, or an array of arrays of coordinates but that does not work. So far I have learned to create an image, open an image in a layer, copy a layer and more. I am not making good progress on polygons.

You are on the wrong track, pdb.gimp_edit_stroke_vectors(drawable, vectors) is the API to "Edit>Stroke Path".
What you need is pdb.gimp_image_select_polygon(image, operation, num_segs, segs).
