Hi guys,

I just wanted to know if i could obtain some help with creating a border or boxes around the shole screen. I want to try to ask for help and see if anyone should respond =D Anyways, i would like it to be 51 pixel [oh yeah, i'm using pixel graphics] so 51 pixels from the bottom up, the right side out, left side out, and top side down. ~(fifty-one pixels)~

Bump? You bumped it up after a single minute of waiting. CompSci.ca is not that active.

Of course someone will respond. Smile

The easiest way to do this would be to clear the screen to the colour you want your border to be, then draw a white box in the middle of the screen. Or not white; make it whatever colour you want your main background to be.
code:

colourback (blue)
cls
Draw.FillBox (50, 50, maxx - 50, maxy - 50, white)


Alternatively, you could draw four boxes. One on each side of the screen.

I wonder if he took the minute to design the Bump design.

of yaknow, if you want your boarder to be thicker than one pixel (oh no!) you could just draw 4 Draw.ThickLines (look them up) or is there somesort of Draw.ThickBox thing thati dont know about Rolling Eyes

There is if you search for the "Upgrading Turing" or "New commands for Turing" topics Smile.

The best way to make a border is to use the drawbox command. create 1 around the outside of the screen and then a box 1 pixel inside that. This creates a good affect to the program.
