Hey I need some help on this part, ok, I have a canvas, right?? and like, when you click the canvas, it sets the xmous and ymouse to variables, so that the start of the box starts at where you clicked, but... I cant seem to get it to drag into square, here take this sample

This should work, you were mixing up your corners. Your first lineto was the set position, so it skipped a line, hence the triangle.

Code: Select all

if (d == 1)
{
    erase(0, 0, 0, 1);
    currentposx = xmouse;
    currentposy = ymouse;
    lineto(startposx,ymouse);
    lineto(xmouse, ymouse);
    lineto(xmouse, startposy);
    lineto(startposx, startposy);
}

Sorry I can't post the ged right now, don't know why, but that is the draw code....

O... Omg! your a genious!

Now I have another problem, when you let go of the mouse button, it DOES stop drawing the box yes, but when you click it again the box moves to a weird ass position.. try it yourself :/ then the box never goes away :O, it keeps following you it's odd

That doesn't happen to me, but here is a fix to do what you want, I think.

MouseButtonUp(left)

Code: Select all

d=0;

MouseButtonDown(left)

Code: Select all

erase(0, 0, 0, 1);
d = 1;
screen_to_actor(&xmouse, &ymouse);
moveto(xmouse, ymouse);

lineto(xmouse, ymouse);
startposx = xmouse;
startposy = ymouse;

I put that,m but it still dosnt re-create another box, here look

Is this what you want?

Thanks
