Py5Graphics.rect()¶
Draws a rectangle to the Py5Graphics drawing surface.
Description¶
Draws a rectangle to the Py5Graphics drawing surface. A rectangle is a four-sided shape with every angle at ninety degrees. By default, the first two parameters set the location of the upper-left corner, the third sets the width, and the fourth sets the height. The way these parameters are interpreted, however, may be changed with the Py5Graphics.rect_mode() function.
To draw a rounded rectangle, add a fifth parameter, which is used as the radius value for all four corners.
To use a different radius value for each corner, include eight parameters. When using eight parameters, the latter four set the radius of the arc at each corner separately, starting with the top-left corner and moving clockwise around the rectangle.
This method is the same as rect() but linked to a Py5Graphics object. To see example code for how it can be used, see rect().
Underlying Processing method: PGraphics.rect
Syntax¶
rect(a: float, b: float, c: float, d: float, /) -> None
rect(a: float, b: float, c: float, d: float, r: float, /) -> None
rect(a: float, b: float, c: float, d: float, tl: float, tr: float, br: float, bl: float, /) -> None
Parameters¶
a: float - x-coordinate of the rectangle by default
b: float - y-coordinate of the rectangle by default
bl: float - radius for bottom-left corner
br: float - radius for bottom-right corner
c: float - width of the rectangle by default
d: float - height of the rectangle by default
r: float - radii for all four corners
tl: float - radius for top-left corner
tr: float - radius for top-right corner
