DOMRect

A DOMRect represents a rectangle.

The type of box represented by the DOMRect is specified by the method or property that returned it. For example, VREyeParameters.renderRect from the WebVR API specifies the viewport of a canvas into which visuals for one eye of a head mounted display should be rendered.

It inherits from its parent, DOMRectReadOnly.

Constructor

DOMRect()

Creates a new DOMRect object.

Properties

DOMRect inherits properties from its parent, DOMRectReadOnly. The difference is that they are not read-only anymore.

DOMRectReadOnly.x Read only

The x coordinate of the DOMRect's origin.

DOMRectReadOnly.y Read only

The y coordinate of the DOMRect's origin.

DOMRectReadOnly.width Read only

The width of the DOMRect.

DOMRectReadOnly.height Read only

The height of the DOMRect.

DOMRectReadOnly.top Read only

Returns the top coordinate value of the DOMRect (has the same value as y, or y + height if height is negative.)

DOMRectReadOnly.right Read only

Returns the right coordinate value of the DOMRect (has the same value as x + width, or x if width is negative.)

DOMRectReadOnly.bottom Read only

Returns the bottom coordinate value of the DOMRect (has the same value as y + height, or y if height is negative.)

DOMRectReadOnly.left Read only

Returns the left coordinate value of the DOMRect (has the same value as x, or x + width if width is negative.)

Methods

DOMRect inherits methods from its parent, DOMRectReadOnly.

DOMRectReadOnly.fromRect()

Creates a new DOMRect object with a given location and dimensions.

Specifications

Browser compatibility

[1] IE and Edge support the non-standard MSDN: ClientRect which does not define x and y properties
