How to draw an "invisible" rectangle?

[Pierre Clouthier]

How does one draw a rectangle with a zero-width line?

This:

HPDF_Page_SetLineWidth(page, 0.f);

results in a thin line, not a zero-width line.

Is there another way to define a clipping region than drawing a rectangle? My goal is to clip the output. I am following the sample code, which uses a rectangle.

Is no one monitoring this forum? I am willing to pay for consulting services.

Call

HPDF_Page_EndPath(page);

instead of Fill or Stroke. Calling EndPath will end the path object without filling or painting.

You may be able to set the color to white to make it "disappear". As far as I know, you can't make it zero width.

If you wish to clip, I seem to remember that you need to draw a Text Rectangle. Is that what you are doing? I remember from a previous discussion that this is problematic as a solution.

There are many people who monitor this list. You have been asking questions that I certainly cannot answer, and if I were to reply it therefore would be of absolutely no help.

Damian Woroch: Brilliant! _EndPath() seems to have done the trick. Thank you.

Bill: Thank you for your reply. Yes, I am using a rectangle to clip. I can't use the color white because it will overlay the rest of the drawing.

This is what I'm doing with Haru:
