Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

My Granddaughter was reading up on the graphics commands and asked about

BOX X1, Y1, W, H, LW, C, FILL
RBOX X1, Y1, W, H, R, C, FILL

using X1,Y1 while

CIRCLE X, Y, R, LW, A, C, FILL
PIXEL X, Y, C
GUI BITMAP X, Y, BITS, WIDTH, HEIGHT, SCALE, C, BC
TEXT X, Y, STRING, JUSTIFICATION, FONT, SCALE, C, BC

use X,Y

LINE X1, Y1, X2, Y2, LW, C

it makes sense to her

I told her it maybe a hold over from something like

BOX X1, Y1, X2, Y2, LW, C, FILL
RBOX X1, Y1, X2, Y2, R, C, FILL

yes/no
any thoughts?

Your Granddaughter has a good eye for detail and future career in programming if she wants to follow it.

Yes, you are exactly right and I will revise the documentation.

Clever girl!
Nicely spotted by her.
