    Charley,

    You would have to break up the polygon yourself into smaller pieces. Whilst OA itself supports more than 4000 vertices (I'm not sure there's an actual limit) there are various limits in Virtuoso for historical reasons which still are 4000 (which used to be the limit in CDB).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
