Yes it is working fine ;) I thought about a solution without the translation.
without the translation, it could work, but i'm not sure the result will be the same on every GPU.

This is a nice example for the importance of the rendering order. ++

hello,
i may have misunderstood the question, because i think there is a much simple solution using rendering order. see attachment. c

hi again,
after reflexion, I don't think it's a good idea to snap and apply alpha when you want to apply a texture on the outer rectangle, some pixels might disappear when they have the same amount of color that is supposed to disappear on the masking process.
It might be possible to apply a texture mapping on vertices drawn with openGL functions rather, but I've no clue about how it could be done yet.
Or just use the method proposed by jack that is about using four rectangles if you don't use a texture, you can connect them together like this:
[gemhead] | [translateXYZ -1 0 0] | [rectangle 0.2 1] | [translateXYZ 0.8 1 0] | [rectangle 1 0.2] | etc...
Just loading an image containing the alpha hole, like attached would be cpu wise, very simple to do with an image editor, and wouldn't add artefacts on your texture. I've attached an example patch and the gimp image, on gimp just draw the two rectangles, select the inner rectangle, go to Colors menu, and then choose "Color to alpha". I've choosen the tiff format because it works on most platforms, unlike png.

Hello,
You have several possibilities to do what you are looking for :
- use (as Patrick describe) two rectangles to create a mask (with
[gemframebuffer], [pix_snap] and [pix_buffer], [pix_buffer_read], [pix_buffer_write]) then [pix_mask] or [pix_multiply];
- use four [rectangle]s to build 'lines' of the rectangle;
- use GLSL to create the mask and the final image.
Surely, there are other ways (like openGL objects with GEM for example)... See in help> browser> examples> GEM (in Pd-extended) to understand what this objects do. Hope that helps somewhat. ++

Patrice,
Thanks for your reply, sounds like interesting options (especially
the
snapping two rectangles together)...could you be more specific with instructions on what objects to use? Pardon my novice GEM skills.
Merci!

hello, you can put an image texture with a rectangle made ofalpha
pixels, or draw an alpha rectangle using gridflow and then loadit
as a texture with #to_pix, or snap two rectangles with different colors, and turn to alpha all pixels matching the inner rectangle.
