Why can't I center my rectangle??

jaycee

Hello, I just want to center my rectangle so that it blends in with my ellipse. Right now it is too far to the left and I want it at the top center... how can I fix this :/ ? I've been looking through tutorials and examples but using rectMode(CENTER); didn't work for me ... please help. Here is the code:

can you copy paste your text here ? please

Chrisir

ellipseMode(CENTER) is the default

Chrisir

here

size(600, 600);


ellipseMode(CENTER);  // Set ellipseMode to CENTER
fill(100);  // Set fill to gray
ellipse(50, 50, 30, 30);  // Draw gray ellipse using CENTER mode


rectMode(CENTER); 
noFill();
rect(50, 50, 30, 30);  

Chrisir

you need to pass the same x,y values to rect as you pass to ellipse....

jaycee

void setup(){ size(600,600); background(240,221,186);

}

void draw(){ rectMode(RADIUS); stroke(245,215,231); fill(245,215,231); rect(100,100,50,200);

ellipse(width/2, height/1.5, 400, 300);

fill(200); rect(10,10,10,30);

}
