Hi. I'm trying to create a chess game, and I have my chess pieces laid out in a single png image. My intentions were to simply clip the image to display a particular piece, which I can do fine by putting in the coordinates myself... however, that isn't very practical. It'd be much nicer to be able to use Clip(const Rect&) instead of Clip(int, int, int, int)...

So, I was wondering how I'm supposed to create my own Rect? I noticed in GTypes.h that the Rect template has four Set functions, but I can't seem to be able to use them...
