Rectangle

By default, a Rectangle is just an empty item that shows nothing. By setting a color or configuring a border, it’s then possible to draw a rectangle on the screen.

When not part of a layout, its width and height default to 100% of the parent element.

export component ExampleRectangle inherits Window {
width: 200px; height: 800px; background: transparent;
Rectangle {
x: 10px; y: 10px;
width: 180px;
height: 180px;
background: #315afd;
}
// Rectangle with a border
Rectangle {
x: 10px; y: 210px;
width: 180px;
height: 180px;
background: green;
border-width: 2px;
border-color: red;
}
// Transparent Rectangle with a border and a radius
Rectangle {
x: 10px; y: 410px;
width: 180px;
height: 180px;
border-width: 4px;
border-color: black;
border-radius: 30px;
}
// A radius of width/2 makes it a circle
Rectangle {
x: 10px; y: 610px;
width: 180px;
height: 180px;
background: yellow;
border-width: 2px;
border-color: blue;
border-radius: self.width/2;
}
}
