 ESA Portal - Focus On - The remarkable Red Rectangle: A Stairway to Heaven?
Hubble's sharp pictures show that the Red Rectangle is not really rectangular, but has an X-shaped structure, that astronomers interpret as arising from outflows of gas and dust from the star in the centre.
Exactly which molecules in the dust cloud are responsible for the striking red colour of the Rectangle is not yet clear, but it is likely that they are some kind of hydrocarbon formed in the cool outflows from the central star.
Another remarkable feature of the Red Rectangle, visible only with the superb resolution of the Hubble telescope, is the dark band passing across the central star.

 FLTK FLTK2.0: Rectangle Class Reference
Negative w() or h() is supposed to mean an empty and thus invisible rectangle, but some code will treat the rectangle as reflected about x or y.
If the rectangles do not intersect, the result may have negative width and/or height, this means empty() will return true, but some code may still draw this rectangle.
If one rectangle is empty(), the other is returned unchanged (ie it does not union in the degenerate point of that rectangle).

The top left corner of the rectangle is specified by its x and y values, and the extent of the rectangle is specified by its width and height.
The coordinate space for rectangles and points is considered to have increasing values downward and to the right from its origin making this the normal, computer graphics oriented notion of (x, y) coordinates rather than the strict mathematical one.
Destructively replaces the x, y, width and height values in the receiver with ones which represent the intersection of the rectangles specified by the receiver and the given rectangle.
