VS:GetRect

.VectorScript|VectorScript ..VS:Function Reference|Function Reference ..VS:Function_Reference_Appendix|Appendix

Description

Procedure GetRect draws a temporary "rubberband" rectangle onscreen, similar to a selection marquee. The user defines the rectangle by selecting two points which define the top left and bottom right of the rectangle. This cannot be used if there is a function anywhere in the calling chain.

PROCEDURE GetRect(
          VAR p1X,p1Y   :REAL;
          VAR p2X,p2Y   :REAL);

def vs.GetRect(callback):
    return None

Parameters

p1		REAL		Returns coordinates of first user click.
p2		REAL		Returns coordinates of second user click.

Remarks

In Python this function will NOT block execution. It will execute a callback function with the resulted rectangle (two points as callback function parameters).

Example

Python sample is similar to the sample in VS:GetPt.
