The /drawrect command can be used to draw a rectangle in a picture window. Multiple rectangles can be drawn at once.

Synopsis

/drawrect [-ihnrfecd] <@win> <color> <size> <x y w h> [x y w h [...]]

Switches

• -i - draws in inverse color mode. You can find the final color based on the two color by using $xor($xor(currentcolor,16777215),drawncolor). Drawing the same color gives white and may be used to create transparency effect.
• -h - Highlights the windows icon if it is minimized.
• -n - Prevents the display from being updated immediately.
• -r - Indicates that the color is in RGB format.
• -f - Draws a filled rectangle.
• -e - Draws an ellipse instead of a rectangle.
• -c - Draws a focus rectangle.
• -d - Draws a rounded rectangle, using the format "/drawrect -d x y w h [w h]" where w and h are the width and height of the ellipse used to draw the corners.

Parameters

• <@win> - Name of the Picture Window to draw to.
• <color> - A mIRC colour value from 0 to 15, or if the -r switch is used, an RGB value.
• <size> - Thickness of the border in pixels.
• <x y w h> - Co-ordinates for a rectangle in pixels, x and y are the top left corner.

Example

;Draws a rectangle that is blue (colour 2) with border thickness of 7, at co-ordinates 15,10 with a width of 200 and height of 150.
/drawrect @window 2 7 15 10 200 150
 
;Same as above but the corners are drawn using a 5x5 ellipse.
/drawrect -d @window 2 7 15 10 200 150 5 5
 
;Draws a filled green rectangle using an RGB colour value.
/drawrect -fr @window 65280 1 5 5 20 20
