Rectangle

Provide functions for the creation and manipulation of 2D Rectangles.

Rectangles are represented using a numpy.array of shape (2,2,).

The first value is a vector of x, y position of the rectangle. The second value is a vector with the width, height of the rectangle.

pyrr.rectangle.abs_height(rect)

Returns the absolute height of the rectangle.

This caters for rectangles with a negative height.

Return type:float
Returns:The absolute height of the rectangle.
pyrr.rectangle.abs_size(rect)

Returns the absolute size of the rectangle.

Return type:numpy.array
Returns:The absolute size of the rectangle.
pyrr.rectangle.abs_width(rect)

Returns the absolute width of the rectangle.

This caters for rectangles with a negative width.

Return type:float
Returns:The absolute width of the rectangle.
pyrr.rectangle.aspect_ratio(rect)
pyrr.rectangle.bottom(rect)

Returns the bottom most Y value of the rectangle.

This caters for rectangles with a negative height.

Return type:float
Returns:The smallest Y value.
pyrr.rectangle.bounds(*args, **kwargs)

Returns the absolute boundaries of the rectangle.

This caters for rectangles with a negative width.

Return type:Tuple of 4 floats
Returns:The absolute left, right, bottom and top of the rectangle.
pyrr.rectangle.create(x=0.0, y=0.0, width=1.0, height=1.0, dtype=None)

Creates a rectangle from the specified position and sizes.

This function will interpret the values literally. A negative width or height will be represented by the returned value.

Return type:numpy.array
Returns:Returns a rectangle with the specified values.
pyrr.rectangle.create_from_bounds(left, right, bottom, top, dtype=None)

Creates a rectangle from the specified boundaries.

This caters for the left and right, and for the top and bottom being swapped.

Return type:numpy.array
Returns:Returns a rectangle with the specified values. The rectangle will have a positive width and height regardless of the values passed in.
pyrr.rectangle.create_zeros(dtype=None)
pyrr.rectangle.height(rect)

Returns the literal height of the rectangle.

Return type:float
Returns:The height of the rectangle. This can be a negative value.
class pyrr.rectangle.index
position = 0
size = 1
pyrr.rectangle.left(rect)

Returns the left most X value of the rectangle.

This caters for rectangles with a negative width.

Return type:float
Returns:The smallest X value.
pyrr.rectangle.position(*args, **kwargs)

Returns the literal position of the rectangle.

This is the bottom-left point of the rectangle for rectangles with positive width and height

Return type:numpy.array
Returns:The position of the rectangle.
pyrr.rectangle.right(rect)

Returns the right most X value of the rectangle.

This caters for rectangles with a negative width.

Return type:float
Returns:The biggest X value.
pyrr.rectangle.scale_by_vector(*args, **kwargs)

Scales a rectangle by a 2D vector.

Note that this will also scale the X,Y value of the rectangle, which will cause the rectangle to move, not just increase in size.

Parameters:
  • rect (numpy.array) – the rectangle to scale. Both x,y and width,height will be scaled.
  • vec – A 2D vector to scale the rect by.
Return type:

numpy.array.

pyrr.rectangle.size(*args, **kwargs)

Returns the literal size of the rectangle.

These values may be negative.

Return type:numpy.array
Returns:The size of the rectangle.
pyrr.rectangle.top(rect)

Returns the top most Y value of the rectangle.

This caters for rectangles with a negative height.

Return type:float
Returns:The biggest Y value.
pyrr.rectangle.width(rect)

Returns the literal width of the rectangle.

Return type:float
Returns:The width of the rectangle. This can be a negative value.
pyrr.rectangle.x(rect)

Returns the X position of the rectangle.

This will be the left for rectangles with positive height values.

Return type:float
Returns:The X position of the rectangle. This value will be further right than the ‘right’ if the width is negative.
pyrr.rectangle.y(rect)

Returns the Y position of the rectangle.

This will be the bottom for rectangles with positive height values.

Return type:float
Returns:The Y position of the rectangle. This value will be above the bottom if the height is negative.
