Uploaded Tektosyne 5.6.3 with some new rectangle functions for relative point locations. The User’s Guide got a minor update as well, for the new RectLocation
enumeration.
Speaking of which, this enumeration calls the edge coordinates StartX/Y
and EndX/Y
as in LineD/F/I
, rather than Left/Right/Top/Bottom
as in RectD/F/I
. The LRTB
model originally seemed like a good idea for the sake of BCL compatibility, but in retrospect these terms for screen drawing orientation have no place in a library that’s intended for geometric calculations. Changing them now would break a lot of code, unfortunately. Perhaps I’ll simply add the new names and mark the old ones with the Obsolete
attribute…
