width	Longint	Width of rectangle
height	Longint	Height of rectangle
roundedX	Longint	Horizontal curve
roundedY	Longint	Vertical curve

Description

The SVG_New_rect command creates a new rectangle in the SVG container designated by parentSVGObject and returns its reference. If parentSVGObject is not an SVG document, an error is generated.

The rectangle is positioned and sized according to the values of x, y, width and height.

The optional roundedX and roundedY parameters can be used to round off the angles according to the indicated values. If the roundedY parameter is omitted (or is -1), the curve will be regular. Pass -1 in these parameters if you want them to be ignored by the command.

The optional foregroundColor and backgroundColor parameters contain, respectively, the name of the line color and of the background color. (For more information about colors, please refer to the commands of the Colors and Gradients theme).

The optional strokeWidth parameter contains the size of the pen expressed in pixels. Its default value is 1.

Example 1

Draw a rectangle (default fill and border color, default line thickness):

 svgRef:=SVG_New

 objectRef:=SVG_New_rect(svgRef;10;10;200;100)

Example 2

Draw a blue rectangle with a 3-pixel red border:

svgRef:= SVG_New
objectRef:=SVG_New_rect (svgRef;10;10;200;100;0;0;"red";"blue";3)

Example 3

Draw a square with rounded edges (default fill and border color, default line thickness):

 svgRef:=SVG_New

 objectRef:=SVG_New_rect(svgRef;10;10;100;100;20)

Example 4

Draw a light blue rectangle with rounded ends and a blue edge (default line thickness):

 svgRef:=SVG_New

 objectRef:=SVG_New_rect(svgRef;10;10;200;100;-1;50;"blue";"lightblue")
