Ankhnesneferibre's coffin lid. The glyphs read into the facing of the hieroglyphs, as column 3, 2, then 1. Column 1 ends at the bottom with a hieroglyph block of "people", i.e. "man, woman, plural" (3 vertical strokes).[1]

A quadrat block (or quadrate block) is a virtual rectangle or square in Egyptian hieroglyphic text.
The glyphs (hieroglyphs) can be variable in number within the virtual block, though they are often proportioned according to variable standardized rules of scribal methods.[2]
The definition for the block in Illustrated Hieroglyphics Handbook by Schumann-Antelme and Rossini, is: "A 'quadrate' is a virtual square, which although not drawn, guides the hand of the scribe. Hieroglyphs must be aesthetically positioned within the quadrate and their size must be proportioned accordingly. They form groups that are pleasing to the eye and based on the laws of balance."[3]

An example of 5 lines of text from the Rosetta Stone, (lines 9, 10, 11, 12, 13), shows a width of about six to seven virtual blocks. Line 12, (fourth line) is illustrative of the variable size, in this case the widths, of the 'virtual quadrate blocks'.

In running text blocks, prepositions can sometimes start or end a block, but may be part of the next block's translation. Running texts will sometimes actually end in the very middle of the next square. This can be accomplished because some of the prepositions come in vertical and horizontal forms:
1 1 I am trying to develop a top - down shooter game. Currently I am doing everything from scratch because I want to learn Java better. My problem right now is with collision detection. I am using Rectangle.Intersects(as seen in code) to determine whether the player is intersecting with walls. It almost perfectly, except that when the player is colliding on just one axis (ie running into a vertical wall), they are locked in both directions. I want to implement sliding for more smooth gameplay. I have a slight idea on how to do this, which would involve checking the x and y planes individually. However, I don't know if this is possible using my current method. I am a little new to Java so I don't know much about different kinds of libraries I could use instead of Rectangles but they have been working great and I would like to stick to them. If there is a solution using Rectangles, that would be great. If there isn't, I'm open to new ideas. Thanks. Here is t...
