swiftGD.Image isn't able to draw a titled/rotated rectangle (both 'stroke' and filled)

It looks libgd doesn't have such ability itself but SwiftGD is a bridge and could add such feature out of box. Otherwise another options (graph libs) adapted to Swift have to be figured out.

The old school way to do this is simply to draw the filled rectangle, then draw the bordered (no fill) rectangle on top. Given that libgd is a very lightweight old school library, that's how I'd accomplish the task.

@vitalz I wouldn’t expect SwiftGD to do this out of the box. It’s more of a direct port of gd and should behave like gd does.

Of course, you could write your own methods to accomplish what you’re after.

By tilted I meant a rotated rectangle. Wrongly used titled.
