7 coordinates

10 Extension
11
13 SDLx::Rect works as a SDL::Rect in the lower layer (SDL::*) but
14 provides more methods to users.
15
16 use SDLx::Rect; #instead of SDL::Rect
17
18 my $rect = SDLx::Rect->new( $x, $y, $w, $h); #same as SDL::Rect
19
20 ...
21
22 SDL::Video::fill_rect( .. , $rect, ...); # use like SDL::Rect
23
25 "SDLx::Rect" object are used to store and manipulate rectangular areas.
26 Rect objects are created from a combination of left (or x), top (or y),
27 width (or w) and height (or h) values, just like raw "SDL::Rect
28 objects".
29
30 All "SDLx::Rect" methods that change either position or size of a Rect
31 return a new copy of the Rect with the affected changes. The original
32 Rect is not modified. If you wish to modify the current Rect object,
33 you can use the equivalent "in-place" methods that do not return but
34 instead affects the original Rect. These "in-place" methods are denoted
35 with the "ip" suffix. Note that changing a Rect's attribute is always
36 an in-place operation.
37
38 ATTRIBUTES
39 All Rect attributes are accessors, meaning you can get them by name,
40 and set them by passing a value:
41
42 $rect->left(15);
43 $rect->left; # 15
44
45 The Rect object has several attributes which can be used to resize,
46 move and align the Rect.
47
48 · width, w - gets/sets object's width
49
50 · height, h - gets/sets object's height
51
52 · left, x - moves the object left position to match the given
53 coordinate
54
55 · top, y - moves the object top position to match the given
56 coordinate
57
58 · bottom - moves the object bottom position to match the given
59 coordinate
60
61 · right - moves the object right position to match the given
62 coordinate
63
64 · centerx - moves the object's horizontal center to match the given
65 coordinate
66
67 · centery - moves the object's vertical center to match the given
68 coordinate
69
70 Some of the attributes above can be fetched or set in pairs:
71
72 $rect->topleft(10, 15); # top is now 10, left is now 15
73
74 my ($width, $height) = $rect->size;
75
76 · size - gets/sets object's size (width, height)
77
78 · topleft - gets/sets object's top and left positions
79
80 · midleft - gets/sets object's vertical center and left positions
81
82 · bottomleft - gets/sets object's bottom and left positions
83
84 · center - gets/sets object's center (horizontal(x), vertical(y))
85
86 · topright - gets/sets object's top and right positions
87
88 · midright - gets/sets object's vertical center and right positions
89
90 · bottomright - gets/sets object's bottom and right positions
91
92 · midtop - gets/sets object's horizontal center and top positions
93
94 · midbottom - gets/sets object's horizontal center and bottom
95 positions
96
97 METHODS
98 Methods denoted as receiving Rect objects can receive either
99 "<SDLx::Rect"> or raw "<SDL::Rect"> objects.
100
101 new ($left, $top, $width, $height)
102
103 Returns a new Rect object with the given coordinates. If any value is
104 omitted (by passing undef), 0 is used instead.
105
106 copy
107
108 duplicate
109
110 Returns a new Rect object having the same position and size as the
111 original
112
113 move(x, y)
114
115 Returns a new Rect that is moved by the given offset. The x and y
116 arguments can be any integer value, positive or negative.
117
118 move_ip(x, y)
119
120 Same as "<move"> above, but moves the current Rect in place and returns
121 nothing.
122
123 inflate(x, y)
124
125 Grows or shrinks the rectangle. Returns a new Rect with the size
126 changed by the given offset. The rectangle remains centered around its
127 current center. Negative values will return a shrunken rectangle
128 instead.
129
130 inflate_ip(x, y)
131
132 Same as "<inflate"> above, but grows/shrinks the current Rect in place
133 and returns nothing.
134
135 clamp($rect)
136
137 Returns a new Rect moved to be completely inside the Rect object passed
138 as an argument. If the current Rect is too large to fit inside the
139 passed Rect, it is centered inside it, but its size is not changed.
140
141 clamp_ip($rect)
142
143 Same as "<clamp"> above, but moves the current Rect in place and
144 returns nothing.
145
146 clip($rect)
147
148 Returns a new Rect with the intersection between the two Rect objects,
149 that is, returns a new Rect cropped to be completely inside the Rect
150 object passed as an argument. If the two rectangles do not overlap to
151 begin with, a Rect with 0 size is returned, in the original Rect's
152 (x,y) coordinates.
153
154 clip_ip($rect)
155
156 Same as "<clip"> above, but crops the current Rect in place and returns
157 nothing. As the original method, the Rect becomes zero-sized if the two
158 rectangles do not overlap to begin with, retaining its (x, y)
159 coordinates.
160
161 union($rect)
162
163 Returns a new rectangle that completely covers the area of the current
164 Rect and the one passed as an argument. There may be area inside the
165 new Rect that is not covered by the originals.
166
167 union_ip($rect)
168
169 Same as "<union"> above, but resizes the current Rect in place and
170 returns nothing.
171
172 unionall( [$rect1, $rect2, ...] )
173
174 Returns the union of one rectangle with a sequence of many rectangles,
175 passed as an ARRAY REF.
176
177 unionall_ip( [$rect1, $rect2, ...] )
178
179 Same as "<unionall"> above, but resizes the current Rect in place and
180 returns nothing.
181
182 fit($rect)
183
184 Returns a new Rect moved and resized to fit the Rect object passed as
185 an argument. The aspect ratio of the original Rect is preserved, so the
186 new rectangle may be smaller than the target in either width or height.
187
188 fit_ip($rect)
189
190 Same as "<fit"> above, but moves/resizes the current Rect in place and
191 returns nothing.
192
193 normalize
194
195 Corrects negative sizes, flipping width/height of the Rect if they have
196 a negative size. No repositioning is made so the rectangle will remain
197 in the same place, but the negative sides will be swapped. This method
198 returns nothing.
199
200 contains($rect)
201
202 Returns true (non-zero) when the argument is completely inside the
203 Rect. Otherwise returns undef.
204
205 collidepoint(x, y)
206
207 Returns true (non-zero) if the given point is inside the Rect,
208 otherwise returns undef. A point along the right or bottom edge is not
209 considered to be inside the rectangle.
210
211 colliderect($rect)
212
213 Returns true (non-zero) if any portion of either rectangles overlap
214 (except for the top+bottom or left+right edges).
215
216 collidelist( [$rect1, $rect2, ...] )
217
218 Test whether the rectangle collides with any in a sequence of
219 rectangles, passed as an ARRAY REF. The index of the first collision
220 found is returned. Returns undef if no collisions are found.
221
222 collidelistall( [$rect1, $rect2, ...] )
223
224 Returns an ARRAY REF of all the indices that contain rectangles that
225 collide with the Rect. If no intersecting rectangles are found, an
226 empty list ref is returned.
227
228 collidehash( {key1 => $rect1, key2 => $rect2, ...} )
229
230 Receives a HASH REF and returns the a (key, value) list with the key
231 and value of the first hash item that collides with the Rect. If no
232 collisions are found, returns (undef, undef).
233
234 collidehashall( {key1 => $rect1, key2 => $rect2, ...} )
235
236 Returns a HASH REF of all the key and value pairs that intersect with
237 the Rect. If no collisions are found an empty hash ref is returned.
