# appendRoundedRect(_:xRadius:yRadius:)

Appends a rounded rectangular path to the path.

```
func appendRoundedRect(_ rect: NSRect, xRadius: CGFloat, yRadius: CGFloat)
```

## Parameters

`rect`

The rectangle that defines the basic shape of the path.

`xRadius`

The radius of each corner oval along the x-axis. Values larger than half the rectangle’s width are clamped to half the width.

`yRadius`

The radius of each corner oval along the y-axis. Values larger than half the rectangle’s height are clamped to half the height.

## Discussion

The path is constructed in a counter-clockwise direction, starting at the top-left corner of the rectangle. If either one of the radius parameters contains the value `0.0`, the returned path is a plain rectangle without rounded corners.

## See Also

[`+  bezierPathWithRoundedRect:xRadius:yRadius:`](/documentation/AppKit/NSBezierPath/init(roundedRect:xRadius:yRadius:))

Creates and returns a new Bézier path object initialized with a rounded rectangular path.
