Rectangles can be created using the commands:

ADEFine dfnpt1 dfnpt2	Defines a rectangle where dfnpt1 defines a position (2D, 3D, p-point) which is the centre of the rectangle, and dfnpt2 defines the position of a corner.
ASDEFine dfnpt1 dfnpt2	Defines a square where dfnpt1 defines the centre of the rectangle, and dfnpt2 defines the position of a corner.
SDEFine dfnpt1 dfnpt2	Defines a square where dfnpt1 and dfnpt2 define the positions of the corners

For example:

ADEF X400 Y400 X500 Y450	Defines a RECT 200 by 100 with its centre at X400 Y400 and a corner at X500 Y450.
SDEF X400 Y400 X500 Y450	Defines a RECT 100 square with one corner at X400 Y400 and the other at X500 Y500.
ASDEF X400 Y400 X500 Y450	Defines a RECT 200 square with its centre at X400 Y400 and a corner at X500 Y500.

These commands can also be used with the cursor, for example:

ADEFine @

A prompt requests two 2D points to be input.

All other operations are as for Circles. Refer to CIRCLE (CIRC) for further information.
