[Question] Additional 1px on rectangle dimensions?

[JohnPaulHarold]

Describe your question

When I create a rect with specific dimensions, I'm finding that when calling getBoundingClientRect() there is an additional 1px added. Is this expected behaviour, and if so, why does it happen?

If this feels like a bug, I can update the ticket, or raise a new one.

Your code (either pasted here, or a link to a hosted example)

Environment (please select one):

• Code executes in browser (e.g: using script tag to load library)
• Packaged software (e.g: ES6 imports, react, angular, vue.js)
• Running headless (usually Node.js)

If applicable:

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: OSX (I can test others if needs be)
• Browser: Chrome/Safari
• Version: latest stable on both

Yes, due to browser inconsistency noStroke is actually the same as stroke = 'transparent'. As a result, the stroke technically exists, but is not visible to the end user. This can be remedied by path.linewidth = 0

But, to your point we can add path.linewidth = 0 to the noStroke method to increase coverage.

Thanks. I thought I'd tried that, but I realised I might have been using lineWidth.

Do you want me to raise a request ticket asking for linewidth = 0 to be added to the noStroke() function?

No need, fixed it here: #732

Thanks! This question is answered for me.
