----------
Right. The normal coordinate description for a rect is as you say, so the
"TD" is wrong the way it says it.

However, in many descriptions, any screen coordinate is, by definition,
always a pair of numbers usually drawn from what is usually called the
topLeft corner (pair) to the bottomRight cornewr (pair). Maybe that's where
the Dictionary description got off track.

Just guessing,
