Frank, this is a guess out of ignorance, but is it possible that the rect
is getting offset by a comma somewhere, or is missing one and thus the
compiler is taking it as being some other information?

Probably get the error because Run launches the app, and the error then
presents itself? Or can you run the built app, and not get the message?
