    $\begingroup$ Nothing in the documentation for the Polytopes Package says you can use it with Graphics. But this seems to work Graphics@Polygon@Vertices@Octagon $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 14, 2016 at 16:36

  • $\begingroup$ If what you want is the outline of a polytope: Graphics[{Black, RegularPolygon[1, 8], White, RegularPolygon[0.95, 8]}] $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 14, 2016 at 18:49
