PIL is the Python Imaging Library which provides the python interpreter with image editing capabilities. The ImageDraw
module provide simple 2D graphics for Image objects. You can use this module to create new images, annotate or retouch existing images, and to generate graphics on the fly for web use.
ImageDraw.Draw.rectangle()
Draws an rectangle.
Syntax: PIL.ImageDraw.Draw.rectangle(xy, fill=None, outline=None)
Parameters:xy – Four points to define the bounding box. Sequence of either [(x0, y0), (x1, y1)] or [x0, y0, x1, y1]. The second point is just outside the drawn rectangle.
outline – Color to use for the outline.
fill – Color to use for the fill.Returns: An Image object in rectangle shape.
# importing image object from PIL import math from PIL import Image, ImageDraw w, h = 220 , 190 shape = [( 40 , 40 ), (w - 10 , h - 10 )] # creating new Image object img = Image.new( "RGB" , (w, h)) # create rectangle image img1 = ImageDraw.Draw(img) img1.rectangle(shape, fill = "# ffff33" , outline = "red" ) img.show() |
Output:
Another Example: Here we use different colour for filling.
# importing image object from PIL import math from PIL import Image, ImageDraw w, h = 220 , 190 shape = [( 40 , 40 ), (w - 10 , h - 10 )] # creating new Image object img = Image.new( "RGB" , (w, h)) # create rectangleimage img1 = ImageDraw.Draw(img) img1.rectangle(shape, fill = "# 800080" , outline = "green" ) img.show() |
Output:
