Usage
dom.addNewRectanglePrimitive(boundingRectangle, roundness)
Arguments
A rectangle that specifies the bounds within which the new rectangle
boundingRectangle
primitive is added (see "Rectangle data type" on page 12).
A floating-point value between 0 and 1 that specifies the "roundness" to use for
roundness
the corners (0 is no roundness, and 1 is 100% roundness).
Returns
Nothing.
Description
Adds a new rectangle primitive that fits in the specified bounds. The rectangle primitive uses
the document's current default path attributes, is added on the current frame and layer, and
has several editable properties, such as corner roundness and transformation. The difference
between a rectangle and a rectangle primitive is that a rectangle is a path that is shaped like a
rectangle, and a rectangle primitive preserves its rectangular quality; that is, if you drag a
corner, it remains a rectangle rather than becoming a quadrilateral.
Example
The following command adds a new rectangle primitive with no round corners within the
specified coordinates:
fw.getDocumentDOM().addNewRectanglePrimitive({left:0, top:0, right:100,
bottom:100}, 0);
