public boolean intersects (double localX, double localY, double localWidth, double localHeight)

Returns true if the given rectangle (specified in the local coordinate space of this Node) intersects the shape of this Node. Note that this method does not take visibility into account; the test is based on the geometry of this Node only. The default behavior of this function is simply to check if the given coordinates intersect with the local bounds.

Parameters:
localX    the x coordinate of a rectangle in Node's space
localY    the y coordinate of a rectangle in Node's space
localWidth    the width of a rectangle in Node's space
localHeight    the height of a rectangle in Node's space

Returns:  the result of intersects for this Node
