Rect  |  API reference  |  Android Developers (original) (raw)


class Rect : Parcelable

Rect holds four integer coordinates for a rectangle. The rectangle is represented by the coordinates of its 4 edges (left, top, right bottom). These fields can be accessed directly. Use width() and height() to retrieve the rectangle's width and height. Note: most methods do not check to see that the coordinates are sorted correctly (i.e. left <= right and top <= bottom).

Note that the right and bottom coordinates are exclusive. This means a Rect being drawn untransformed onto a [android.graphics.Canvas](/reference/kotlin/android/graphics/Canvas) will draw into the column and row described by its left and top coordinates, but not those of its bottom and right.

Summary

Inherited constants
From class Parcelable Int CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR Descriptor bit used with describeContents(): indicates that the Parcelable object's flattened representation includes a file descriptor. Int PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE Flag for use with writeToParcel: the object being written is a return value, that is the result of a function such as "Parcelable someFunction()", "void someFunction(out Parcelable)", or "void someFunction(inout Parcelable)". Some implementations may want to release resources at this point.

Public constructors

Rect

Rect()

Create a new empty Rect. All coordinates are initialized to 0.

Rect

Rect(r: Rect?)

Create a new rectangle, initialized with the values in the specified rectangle (which is left unmodified).

Parameters
r Rect?: The rectangle whose coordinates are copied into the new rectangle. This value may be null.

Rect

Rect(
    left: Int,
    top: Int,
    right: Int,
    bottom: Int)

Create a new rectangle with the specified coordinates. Note: no range checking is performed, so the caller must ensure that left <= right and top <= bottom.

Parameters
left Int: The X coordinate of the left side of the rectangle
top Int: The Y coordinate of the top of the rectangle
right Int: The X coordinate of the right side of the rectangle
bottom Int: The Y coordinate of the bottom of the rectangle

Public methods

centerX

fun centerX(): Int

Return
Int the horizontal center of the rectangle. If the computed value is fractional, this method returns the largest integer that is less than the computed value.

centerY

fun centerY(): Int

Return
Int the vertical center of the rectangle. If the computed value is fractional, this method returns the largest integer that is less than the computed value.

contains

fun contains(r: Rect): Boolean

Returns true iff the specified rectangle r is inside or equal to this rectangle. An empty rectangle never contains another rectangle.

Parameters
r Rect: The rectangle being tested for containment. This value cannot be null.
Return
Boolean true iff the specified rectangle r is inside or equal to this rectangle

contains

fun contains(
    x: Int,
    y: Int
): Boolean

Returns true if (x,y) is inside the rectangle. The left and top are considered to be inside, while the right and bottom are not. This means that for a x,y to be contained: left <= x < right and top <= y < bottom. An empty rectangle never contains any point.

Parameters
x Int: The X coordinate of the point being tested for containment
y Int: The Y coordinate of the point being tested for containment
Return
Boolean true iff (x,y) are contained by the rectangle, where containment means left <= x < right and top <= y < bottom

contains

fun contains(
    left: Int,
    top: Int,
    right: Int,
    bottom: Int
): Boolean

Returns true iff the 4 specified sides of a rectangle are inside or equal to this rectangle. i.e. is this rectangle a superset of the specified rectangle. An empty rectangle never contains another rectangle.

Parameters
left Int: The left side of the rectangle being tested for containment
top Int: The top of the rectangle being tested for containment
right Int: The right side of the rectangle being tested for containment
bottom Int: The bottom of the rectangle being tested for containment
Return
Boolean true iff the 4 specified sides of a rectangle are inside or equal to this rectangle

equals

fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean

Parameters
obj the reference object with which to compare.
Return
Boolean true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

exactCenterX

fun exactCenterX(): Float

Return
Float the exact horizontal center of the rectangle as a float.

exactCenterY

fun exactCenterY(): Float

Return
Float the exact vertical center of the rectangle as a float.

flattenToString

fun flattenToString(): String

Return a string representation of the rectangle in a well-defined format.

You can later recover the Rect from this string through [unflattenFromString(java.lang.String)](#unflattenFromString%28kotlin.String%29).

Return
String Returns a new String of the form "left top right bottom" This value cannot be null.

hashCode

fun hashCode(): Int

Return
Int a hash code value for this object.

height

fun height(): Int

Return
Int the rectangle's height. This does not check for a valid rectangle (i.e. top <= bottom) so the result may be negative.

Parameters
insets Insets: The insets to inset the rect by. This value cannot be null.

inset

Parameters
dx Int: The amount to add(subtract) from the rectangle's left(right)
dy Int: The amount to add(subtract) from the rectangle's top(bottom)

Parameters
r Rect: The rectangle being intersected with this rectangle. This value cannot be null.
