# Outer corners

Outer corners are basically what we get from  [elem.getBoundingClientRect()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/element.getBoundingClientRect).

Coordinates of the upper-left corner `answer1` and the bottom-right corner `answer2`:

```js
let coords = elem.getBoundingClientRect();

let answer1 = [coords.left, coords.top];
let answer2 = [coords.right, coords.bottom];
```

# Left-upper inner corner

That differs from the outer corner by the border width. A reliable way to get the distance is `clientLeft/clientTop`:

```js
let answer3 = [coords.left + field.clientLeft, coords.top + field.clientTop];
```

# Right-bottom inner corner

In our case we need to substract the border size from the outer coordinates.

We could use CSS way:

```js
let answer4 = [
  coords.right - parseInt(getComputedStyle(field).borderRightWidth),
  coords.bottom - parseInt(getComputedStyle(field).borderBottomWidth)
];
```

An alternative way would be to add `clientWidth/clientHeight` to coordinates of the left-upper corner. That's probably even better:

```js
let answer4 = [
  coords.left + elem.clientLeft + elem.clientWidth,
  coords.top + elem.clientTop + elem.clientHeight
];
```
