data type, FillPoly limitations? [message #7008]

Hi
Can someone tell me if unsigned short is supported? Most of our satellite
images are formated to unsigned short integers. I can get around this by
using longs, except the unused pair of bytes per data point seems
excessive.
Also, can anyone tell me if there is a limitation to the number of points
FillPoly can process? I have a pair of arrays (lat,lon) which is
42761 points long which I want to fill, but IDL returns an error
unless the length is truncated to 32766 points. This is a real problem

Thanks in advance.

Also, many thanks to David W. Fanning for his in-depth answers to my other
questions.
