This statement allows the user to draw a rectangle of any size on the P" /
screen. Rotation is based on the center of the rectangle. The pixel s—'
cursor (PC) is located at x2, y2 after the BOX statement is executed.
The color source number must be a zero (0) or one (1) if in high reso- \ i
lution bit map mode, or in the range of 0 to 3 if in multicolor bit map ^^
mode. Also see the GRAPHIC command for selecting the appropri- _
ate graphic mode to be used with the BOX color source number. f /
The x and y values can place the pixel cursor at absolute coordi
nates such as (100,100) or at coordinates relative to previous posi- | "/
tion (+ / - x and + / - y) of the pixel cursor such as (+ 20, - 10). The ^
coordinate of one axis (x or y) can be relative and the other can be
absolute. Here are the possible combinations of ways to specify the \~ "j
x and y coordinates: ^—i
x,y absolute x, absolute y ^
± x,y relative x, absolute y , {
x,±y absolute x, relative y
± x, ± y relative x, relative y - -

Also see the LOCATE command for information on the pixel cursor. *—'
The graphics commands DRAW, BOX, CIRCLE, PAINT, LOCATE and \ }
GSHAPE have an additional notation which allows you to specify a [—'
distance and an angle relative to the previous coordinates of the
pixel cursor (PC). The notation is as follows: !"'"]

SOURCE is the same code as in all of the graphics '—j
commands
DISTANCE is the number of pixels to move the pixel cursor | j
ANGLE is the number of degrees to move relative to the
previous pixel cursor coordinate v /
