The Rectangle type exposes the following members.

Constructors
  NameDescription
Public methodRectangle(ViewBase, Point, Point)
Creates a new rectangle instance with two points using standard attributes. Please note that creating a rectangle using two points will re-calculate the start point to correspond with positive widths and heights.
Public methodRectangle(ViewBase, Point, Double, Double)
Creates a new rectangle instance with the start point and the defined width and height using standard attributes.
Public methodRectangle(ViewBase, Point, Point, RectangleRectangleAttributes)
Creates a new rectangle instance with two points using the given attributes. Please note that creating a rectangle using two points will re-calculate the start point to correspond with positive widths and heights.
Public methodRectangle(ViewBase, Point, Double, Double, RectangleRectangleAttributes)
Creates a new rectangle instance with the start point and the defined width and height using the given attributes.

Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyAngle
The angle of the rectangle. The rectangle rotates around its start point.
Public propertyAttributes
The attributes of the rectangle.
Public propertyEndPoint
The end point of the rectangle.
Public propertyHeight
The height of the rectangle. Changing the height changes the end point with the height.
Public propertyHideable
Accesses the information if this object is hidden or not or if it should be.
(Inherited from GraphicObject.)
Public propertyQueryReturnValue
Status information about the latest database operation (select, insert, modify, delete).
(Inherited from DatabaseObject.)
Public propertyStartPoint
The start point of the rectangle. Changing this will move the rectangle.
Public propertyWidth
The width of the rectangle. Changing the width changes the end point with the width.
