Enabled: Adds a point, specified by the integer arguments newx and newy, to this Rectangle. The resulting Rectangle is the smallest Rectangle that contains both the original Rectangle and the specified point.

After adding a point, a call to contains with the added point as an argument does not necessarily return true. The contains method does not return true for points on the right or bottom edges of a Rectangle. Therefore, if the added point falls on the right or bottom edge of the enlarged Rectangle, contains returns false for that point.


add

public void add(Point pt)
Enabled: Adds the specified Point to this Rectangle. The resulting Rectangle is the smallest Rectangle that contains both the original Rectangle and the specified Point.

After adding a Point, a call to contains with the added Point as an argument does not necessarily return true. The contains method does not return true for points on the right or bottom edges of a Rectangle. Therefore if the added Point falls on the right or bottom edge of the enlarged Rectangle, contains returns false for that Point.

Parameters:
pt - the new Point to add to this Rectangle

add

public void add(Rectangle r)
Enabled: Adds a Rectangle to this Rectangle. The resulting Rectangle is the union of the two rectangles.

Parameters:
r - the specified Rectangle

Enabled: Resizes the Rectangle both horizontally and vertically.

This method modifies the Rectangle so that it is h units larger on both the left and right side, and v units larger at both the top and bottom.

The new Rectangle has (x - h, y - v) as its top-left corner, a width of width + 2h, and a height of height + 2v.

If negative values are supplied for h and v, the size of the Rectangle decreases accordingly. The grow method does not check whether the resulting values of width and height are non-negative.

Parameters:
h - the horizontal expansion
v - the vertical expansion

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()
Enabled: Determines whether or not this Rectangle is empty. A Rectangle is empty if its width or its height is less than or equal to zero.

public int outcode(double x,
                   double y)

the smallest Rectangle2D containing both the specified Rectangle2D and this Rectangle.
Since:
1.2

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)
Suppressed: Checks whether two rectangles are equal.

The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is a Rectangle object that has the same top-left corner, width, and height as this Rectangle.

Overrides:
