the Rectangle() function draws a rectangle using the current pen for the
border and the current brush, which seems to be white by default, for the
inside.
you have to create a brush loading the system defined NULL_BRUSH, eg.
same as the window background.
$P = new Win32::GUI::Pen(
-color => [150,0,0],
-width => 1,
);
$NULL_BRUSH = 5;
$B = Win32::GUI::GetStockObject($NULL_BRUSH);
$DC->SelectObject($P);
$DC->SelectObject($B);
$DC->Rectangle(10,10,66,60);
