Rectangle Structure

Namespace: System.Drawing

Represents a graphics location and size, expressed as a set of four integers. A Rectangle structure can be used to store the upper-left corner coordinates, the width, and the height of a rectangle.

Example:
Create a rectangle with its upper-left corner at (10, 20) and a width and height of 100 and 50 respectively.


using System.Drawing;

// ...

Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(10, 20, 100, 50);
// Or
Rectangle rect2 = new Rectangle(new Point(10, 20), new Size(100, 50));

Fields

Name	Type	Description
Empty	static readonly Rectangle	Represents a rectangle with no location or size. This is a read-only field.
X	int	Gets or sets the x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of this `Rectangle` structure.
Y	int	Gets or sets the y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of this `Rectangle` structure.
Width	int	Gets or sets the width of this `Rectangle` structure. Width must be non-negative.
Height	int	Gets or sets the height of this `Rectangle` structure. Height must be non-negative.

Constructors

Name	Description
Rectangle(int x, int y, int width, int height)	Initializes a new instance of the `Rectangle` structure with the specified location and size.
Rectangle(Point location, Size size)	Initializes a new instance of the `Rectangle` structure with the specified location and size.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
Bottom	int	Gets the y-coordinate of the lower edge of this `Rectangle` structure.
Left	int	Gets the x-coordinate of the left edge of this `Rectangle` structure.
Right	int	Gets the x-coordinate of the right edge of this `Rectangle` structure.
Top	int	Gets the y-coordinate of the upper edge of this `Rectangle` structure.
Location	Point	Gets or sets the coordinates of the upper-left corner of this `Rectangle` structure.
Size	Size	Gets or sets the width and height of this `Rectangle` structure.
IsEmpty	bool	Gets a value indicating whether this `Rectangle` structure has a width of 0 and a height of 0 and a location at (0,0).

Methods

Name	Description
Contains(int x, int y)	Determines whether the specified point is contained within this `Rectangle` structure.
Contains(Point pt)	Determines whether the specified point is contained within this `Rectangle` structure.
Inflate(int width, int height)	Inflates this `Rectangle` by the specified amount.
Intersect(Rectangle rect1, Rectangle rect2)	Returns a `Rectangle` structure that represents the intersection of two rectangles. If there is no intersection, an empty `Rectangle` is returned.
Offset(Point pos)	Adjusts the position of this `Rectangle` by the specified offset.
Offset(int x, int y)	Adjusts the position of this `Rectangle` by the specified offset.
Union(Rectangle rect1, Rectangle rect2)	Returns a `Rectangle` structure that represents the union of two rectangles.

Note: Ensure that width and height values are non-negative.
