Rect.Intersect Method

public:
 void Intersect(System::Windows::Rect rect);

public void Intersect (System.Windows.Rect rect);

member this.Intersect : System.Windows.Rect -> unit

Public Sub Intersect (rect As Rect)

Parameters

Examples

The following example shows how to use the Intersect(Rect) method to find the intersection of two rectangles and store the result as a rectangle.

private Rect intersectExample1()
{
    // Initialize new rectangle.
    Rect myRectangle = new Rect();

    // The Location property specifies the coordinates of the upper left-hand 
    // corner of the rectangle. 
    myRectangle.Location = new Point(10, 5);

    // Set the Size property of the rectangle with a width of 200
    // and a height of 50.
    myRectangle.Size = new Size(200, 50);

    // Create second rectangle to compare to the first.
    Rect myRectangle2 = new Rect();
    myRectangle2.Location = new Point(0, 0);
    myRectangle2.Size = new Size(200, 50);

    // Intersect method finds the intersection between the current rectangle and the 
    // specified rectangle, and stores the result as the current rectangle. If no 
    // intersection exists, the current rectangle becomes the Empty rectangle. 
    // myRectangle now has a size of 190,45 and location of 10,5. 
    myRectangle.Intersect(myRectangle2);

    // myRectangle has been changed into the intersection area between the old myRectangle
    // and myRectangle2 (new size of 190,45 and new location of 10,5).
    return myRectangle;
}

Remarks

If no intersection exists, the current rectangle becomes Rect.Empty.

Parameters

Returns

The intersection of the two rectangles, or Empty if no intersection exists.

Remarks

The following example shows how to use the Intersect(Rect, Rect) method to find the intersection of two rectangles.

private Rect intersectExample2()
{
    // Initialize new rectangle.
    Rect myRectangle = new Rect();

    // The Location property specifies the coordinates of the upper left-hand 
    // corner of the rectangle. 
    myRectangle.Location = new Point(10, 5);

    // Set the Size property of the rectangle with a width of 200
    // and a height of 50.
    myRectangle.Size = new Size(200, 50);

    // Create second rectangle to compare to the first.
    Rect myRectangle2 = new Rect();
    myRectangle2.Location = new Point(0, 0);
    myRectangle2.Size = new Size(200, 50);

    // Intersect method finds the intersection between the specified rectangles and 
    // returns the result as a Rect. If there is no intersection then the Empty Rect 
    // is returned. resultRectangle has a size of 190,45 and location of 10,5. 
    Rect resultRectangle = Rect.Intersect(myRectangle, myRectangle2);

    return resultRectangle;
}
