It's about something a bit different than Polymorph Any Object issue, which is actual topic in here, so i posted a new one. Assumption is that i am polymorphed into some creature. 1. My character is outside an Antimagic field. Than she attacks someone who is inside Antimagic field with natural weapons of its new form (claws, slam..). Will that attack be working normally or my characters new form "winks out" at the same moment when she attacks? And if so, will other effects that has nothing to do with my weapons (invisibility, cats grace, mage armor) be working? I remember some rule speaking about "if you touch it, you are in completely" but i don't know where it was yet. 2. If i polymorph myself into some creature type or into individual monster (with a spell that can grant extraordinary traits and can change your creature type) that has a mind-affecting immunity (undead, construct, ooze). Will my new form have that immunity? Because you still have your own mind.....It is sure that you aquire other immunities that depends on physiology (poison, disease, critical) but this is one i am not sure about. 3. Simple and straight. Can i be turned while in Undead form?

In the case of constructs, undead, or oozes, you would thus gain an immunity to mind-affecting effects. 3) Only if your type is changed to undead. Otherwise, probably not unless whoever's doing the turning is capable of turning you normally. For instance, clerics with the proper domains can turn certain elementals. Given the errata, the Polymorph line of spells do not change your type.

Immunities are usually extraordinary (allowed by polymorph) or supernatural (not allowed by polymorph). In general, something with No intelligence score (constructs) likely have extraordinary immunity, while intelligent undead would have supernatural immunity. 3. If you can take the form of an undead, then you can be turned.

I thought that it works in that way (by official FAQs), but how do you explain this: (SRD Spells, Antimagic Field) Should a creature be larger than the area enclosed by the barrier, any part of it that lies outside the barrier is unaffected by the field.
