Detailed Description

The TQRect class defines a rectangle in the plane.

A rectangle is internally represented as an upper-left corner and a bottom-right corner, but it is normally expressed as an upper-left corner and a size.

The coordinate type is TQCOORD (defined in qwindowdefs.h as int). The minimum value of TQCOORD is TQCOORD_MIN (-2147483648) and the maximum value is TQCOORD_MAX (2147483647).

Note that the size (width and height) of a rectangle might be different from what you are used to. If the top-left corner and the bottom-right corner are the same, the height and the width of the rectangle will both be 1.

Generally, width = right - left + 1 and height = bottom - top + 1. We designed it this way to make it correspond to rectangular spaces used by drawing functions in which the width and height denote a number of pixels. For example, drawing a rectangle with width and height 1 draws a single pixel.

The default coordinate system has origin (0, 0) in the top-left corner. The positive direction of the y axis is down, and the positive x axis is from left to right.

A TQRect can be constructed with a set of left, top, width and height integers, from two TQPoints or from a TQPoint and a TQSize. After creation the dimensions can be changed, e.g. with setLeft(), setRight(), setTop() and setBottom(), or by setting sizes, e.g. setWidth(), setHeight() and setSize(). The dimensions can also be changed with the move functions, e.g. moveBy(), moveCenter(), moveBottomRight(), etc. You can also add coordinates to a rectangle with addCoords().

You can test to see if a TQRect contains a specific point with contains(). You can also test to see if two TQRects intersect with intersects() (see also intersect()). To get the bounding rectangle of two TQRects use unite().

Member Function Documentation

TQRect::TQRect ()

Constructs an invalid rectangle.

TQRect::TQRect ( const TQPoint & topLeft, const TQPoint & bottomRight )

Constructs a rectangle with topLeft as the top-left corner and bottomRight as the bottom-right corner.

TQRect::TQRect ( const TQPoint & topLeft, const TQSize & size )

Constructs a rectangle with topLeft as the top-left corner and size as the rectangle size.

TQRect::TQRect ( int left, int top, int width, int height )

Constructs a rectangle with the top, left corner and width and height.

Example (creates three identical rectangles):

        TQRect r1( TQPoint(100,200), TQPoint(110,215) );
        TQRect r2( TQPoint(100,200), TQSize(11,16) );
        TQRect r3( 100, 200, 11, 16 );

void TQRect::addCoords ( int xp1, int yp1, int xp2, int yp2 )

Adds xp1, yp1, xp2 and yp2 respectively to the existing coordinates of the rectangle.

Examples: multiple/ax1.h and multiple/ax2.h.

int TQRect::bottom () const

See also setBottom(), top(), bottomLeft(), and bottomRight().

Examples: action/application.cpp, application/application.cpp, desktop/desktop.cpp, helpviewer/helpwindow.cpp, qfd/fontdisplayer.cpp, scribble/scribble.cpp, and themes/wood.cpp.

TQPoint TQRect::bottomLeft () const

Returns the bottom-left position of the rectangle.

See also setBottomLeft(), moveBottomLeft(), topRight(), bottom(), and left().

Example: tictac/tictac.cpp.

TQPoint TQRect::bottomRight () const

See also setBottomRight(), moveBottomRight(), topLeft(), right(), and bottom().

Example: tictac/tictac.cpp.

TQPoint TQRect::center () const

See also moveCenter(), topLeft(), bottomRight(), topRight(), and bottomLeft().

Example: tooltip/tooltip.cpp.

bool TQRect::contains ( const TQPoint & p, bool proper = FALSE ) const

Returns TRUE if the point p is inside or on the edge of the rectangle; otherwise returns FALSE.

If proper is TRUE, this function returns TRUE only if p is inside (not on the edge).

Example: t14/cannon.cpp.

bool TQRect::contains ( int x, int y ) const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.

Returns TRUE if the point x, y is inside this rectangle; otherwise returns FALSE.

bool TQRect::contains ( int x, int y, bool proper ) const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.

Returns TRUE if the point x, y is inside this rectangle; otherwise returns FALSE.

If proper is TRUE, this function returns TRUE only if the point is entirely inside (not on the edge).

bool TQRect::contains ( const TQRect & r, bool proper = FALSE ) const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.

Returns TRUE if the rectangle r is inside this rectangle; otherwise returns FALSE.

If proper is TRUE, this function returns TRUE only if r is entirely inside (not on the edge).

bool TQRect::isEmpty () const

Returns TRUE if the rectangle is empty; otherwise returns FALSE.

An empty rectangle has a left() > right() or top() > bottom().

An empty rectangle is not valid. isEmpty() == !isValid()

See also isNull(), isValid(), and normalize().

bool TQRect::isNull () const

Returns TRUE if the rectangle is a null rectangle; otherwise returns FALSE.

A null rectangle has both the width and the height set to 0, that is right() == left() - 1 and bottom() == top() - 1.

Note that if right() == left() and bottom() == top(), then the rectangle has width 1 and height 1.

A null rectangle is also empty.

A null rectangle is not valid.

A valid rectangle has a left() <= right() and top() <= bottom().

Note that non-trivial operations like intersections are not defined for invalid rectangles.
