Re: [pygame] Rect Behavior

[ææåçää : linjunhalida <linjunhalida@xxxxxxxxx>]

maybe Ian want to draw random rect, and n*1 is randomized and failed to show... 
so I suggest skip n*1 and use n*2 or n*3..

Hi,

So, I've noticed that, when trying to draw a n*1 or 1*n rectangle (yes I
know a line does the job too) with pygame.draw.rect(...), the behavior
is different for different fills. ÂWhen the fill is 0, nothing draws!
When the fill is 1, the desired rectangle is drawn. ÂIs this the
expected behavior of pygame.draw.rect(...)?

Thanks,

Probably because the rect function assumes a variable-width border. ( http://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/draw.html#pygame.draw.rect ) There's no "fill" argument, only a "border width" argument. So if that's 0, Pygame probably gets confused and draws 0 pixels of border, 0 of interior.

Why not use pygame.draw.line if you only want one pixel width anyway?
