Fireworks 4.
Usage
dom.addNewRectanglePrimitive(boundingRectangle, roundness)
Arguments
A rectangle that specifies the bounds within which the new rectangle primitive is added (see
boundingRectangle
"Rectangle data type" on page 8).
A floating-point value between 0 and 1 that specifies the "roundness" to use for the corners (0 is no
roundness
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);
