TRectangle related methods

Type definition is found in shared/globals.simba

The rectangle is defined in clockwise order, from ``Top`` to ``Left``


- - -

## TRectangle.ToTPA
```pascal
function TRectangle.ToTPA(): TPointArray; constref;
```
TPA from the rectangle.


- - -

## TRectangle.Bounds
```pascal
function TRectangle.Bounds(): TBox; constref;
```
Returns the minimum bounding box covering the rectangle


- - -

## TRectangle.Radius
```pascal
function TRectangle.Radius(): Double; constref;
```
Returns the radius of the shortest side, for the maximum see MaxRadius


- - -

## TRectangle.MaxRadius
```pascal
function TRectangle.MaxRadius(): Double; constref;
```
Returns the radius of the longest side, for minimum see Radius


- - -

## TRectangle.Mean
```pascal
function TRectangle.Mean(): TPoint; constref;
```
Middle of the rectangle
```{note}
By slacky
```


- - -

## TRectangle.FixOrder
```pascal
function TRectangle.FixOrder(): TRectangle; constref;
```
As long as the order of the points are clockwise, this will shift the points so that
`Top`, is the topmost,`Right` is the right-most etc...


- - -

## TRectangle.Rotate
```pascal
function TRectangle.Rotate(Angle: Double): TRectangle; constref;
```
Returns a rotated copy of the rectangle


- - -

## TRectangle.Contains
```pascal
function TRectangle.Contains(pt: TPoint): Boolean; constref;
```
Returns true if the point `pt` is inside the rectangle.


- - -

## TRectangle.DirByLen
```pascal
function TRectangle.DirByLen(Longest: Boolean=True): ESplitDirection; constref;
```
Returns the direction which is the longest or shortest.

```{note}
By slacky
```


- - -

## TRectangle.Partition
```pascal
function TRectangle.Partition(m,n:Int32; dir:ESplitDirection=rpTopLeft): TRectArray; constref;
```
Break the rectangle into smaller rectangles. Goes well along with `DirByLen`

```{note}
By slacky
```


- - -

## TRectangle.Offset
```pascal
function TRectangle.Offset(pt: TPoint): TRectangle; constref;
```
Offset the rectangle.


- - -

## TRectangle.Filter
```pascal
function TRectangle.Filter(testSet: TPointArray): TPointArray; constref;
```
Extract all the points from `testSet` that fits within this rectangle.


- - -

## TRectangle.Expand
```pascal
function TRectangle.Expand(Inc: Int32): TRectangle; constref;
```
Increase or decrease the dimensions of the rectangle.


- - -

## TRectangle.NearestEdge
```pascal
function TRectangle.NearestEdge(P: TPoint): TPoint; constref;
```
Returns the closest edge point (think Rect.ToTPA.Connect) to the TPoint `P`.
