Syntax

Drawing a rectangle by specifying the coordinates of rectangle Hide the details

<Image variable>.DrawRectangle(<X1> , <Y1> , <X2> , <Y2> [, <Background> [, <Line>]])

<Image variable>: Image variable

Name of the Image variable to use.

<X1>: Integer

X coordinate (in pixels) of top left corner of rectangle.

<Y1>: Integer

Y coordinate (in pixels) of top left corner of rectangle.

<X2>: Integer

X coordinate (in pixels) of bottom right corner of rectangle.

<Y2>: Integer

Y coordinate (in pixels) of bottom right corner of rectangle.

<Background>: Integer, constant or Background variable (optional)

Background color of rectangle. This color can be:
an RGB color (returned by RGB),
an HSL color (returned by HSL),
a preset color of WLanguage,
Versions 22 and later
a Color variable,
New in version 22
a Color variable,
a Color variable,
transparent if this parameter is not specified and if the <Image variable>.Background function has not been used before.
Characteristics of background:
Versions 21 and later
Variable type Background. In this case, the gradient defined in the variable is ignored.
New in version 21
Variable type Background. In this case, the gradient defined in the variable is ignored.
Variable type Background. In this case, the gradient defined in the variable is ignored.
characteristics specified in the last call to <Image variable>.Background if this parameter is not specified.
To use a gradient background color, call <Image variable>.DrawRectangleGradient.

<Line>: Integer, constant or Border variable (optional)

Color of rectangle line. This color can be:
an RGB color (returned by RGB),
an HSL color (returned by HSL),
a preset color of WLanguage,
Versions 22 and later

same as Color used for Background if this parameter is not specified and if <Image variable>.Pen was not used.
Characteristics of the line:
Versions 21 and later
Variable type Border. In this case, only the following properties are taken into account:
Color: if the property corresponds to the constant ColorUndefined, the Color defined during the last call to the function <Image variable>.Pen is used. If this function has not been used, the background color of the rectangle will be used.
Thickness: if the property corresponds to the constant ThicknessUndefined, the thickness defined during the last call to the function <Image variable>.Pen is used. If this function has not been used, the thickness will be set to 1.
Line: if the property is LineUndefined, the type of Line defined during the last call to the <Image variable>.Pen function is used. If this function has not been used, the line will be solid.
