NAME

       "Tickit::RectSet" - store a set of rectangular regions

DESCRIPTION

       Objects in this class store a set of rectangular regions. The object tracks which areas
       are covered, to ensure that overlaps are avoided, and that neighbouring regions are merged
       where possible. The order in which they are added is not important.

       New regions can be added using the "add" method. The "rects" method returns a list of non-
       overlapping Tickit::Rect regions, in top-to-bottom, left-to-right order.

CONSTRUCTOR

   new
          $rectset = Tickit::RectSet->new

       Returns a new "Tickit::RectSet" instance, initially empty.

METHODS

   rects
          @rects = $rectset->rects

       Returns a list of the covered regions, in order first top to bottom, then left to right.

   add
          $rectset->add( $rect )

       Adds the region covered by $rect to the stored region list.

   subtract
          $rectset->subtract( $rect )

       Removes any covered region that intersects with $rect from the stored region list.

   clear
          $rectset->clear

       Remove all the regions from the set.

   intersects
          $bool = $rectset->intersects( $rect )

       Returns true if $rect intersects with any region in the set.

   contains
          $bool = $rectset->contains( $rect )

       Returns true if $rect is entirely covered by the regions in the set. Note that it may be
       that the rect requires two or more regions in the set to completely cover it.
