TRectangle

TRectangle related methods

Type definition is found in shared/globals.simba

The rectangle is defined in clockwise order, from Top to Left

TRectangle.ToTPA

function TRectangle.ToTPA(): TPointArray; constref;

TPA from the rectangle.

function TRectangle.Bounds(): TBox; constref;

Returns the minimum bounding box covering the rectangle

function TRectangle.Radius(): Double; constref;

Returns the radius of the shortest side, for the maximum see MaxRadius

function TRectangle.MaxRadius(): Double; constref;

Returns the radius of the longest side, for minimum see Radius

function TRectangle.Mean(): TPoint; constref;

Middle of the rectangle

Note

by slacky

function TRectangle.FixOrder(): TRectangle; constref;

As long as the order of the points are clockwise, this will shift the points so that Top, is the topmost,``Right`` is the right-most etc…

function TRectangle.Rotate(Angle: Double): TRectangle; constref;

Returns a rotated copy of the rectangle

function TRectangle.Contains(Pt: TPoint): Boolean; constref;

Returns true if the point Pt is inside the rectangle. .. note:: by slacky

function TRectangle.DirByLen(Longest: Boolean=True): ESplitDirection; constref;

Returns the direction which is the longest or shortest.

Note

by slacky

function TRectangle.Partition(m,n:Int32; dir:ESplitDirection=rpTopLeft): TRectArray; constref;

Break the rectangle into smaller rectangles. Goes well along with DirByLen

Note

by slacky

function TRectangle.Offset(pt: TPoint): TRectangle; constref;

Offset the rectangle.

function TRectangle.Filter(TestSet: TPointArray): TPointArray; constref;

Extract all the points from TestSet that fits within this rectangle.

function TRectangle.Expand(Inc: Int32): TRectangle; constref;

Increase or decrease the dimensions of the rectangle.

function TRectangle.NearestEdge(P: TPoint): TPoint; constref;

Returns the closest edge point (think Rect.ToTPA.Connect) to the TPoint P.
