here is a code that i got from button for dummies

code:

import GUI

setscreen("graphics:300;125")

procedure hello
locate(1,1)
put "Hello User, you have clicked Button #1!"
end hello

procedure hi
locate(1,1)
put "Hello User, you have clicked Button #2!!"
end hi

var button1:int:=GUI.CreateButton(25,25,0,"Button 1",hello)
var button2:int:=GUI.CreateButton(25,50,0,"button 2",hi)

loop
exit when GUI.ProcessEvent
end loop


this just stays on the same buttons over and over
how do i make is it so that when i click any of the buttons i can go to a second page so i can add a different question and different buttons etc
please reply asap this project is due very soon and i dont want to fail[/quote]

First off, you should be writing your OWN code. not just stealing code snippets from tutorials.

Secondly, look up GUI.Hide and GUI.Show in the Turing help file. As you might have guessed, these hide and show GUI objects. Just hide buttons you don't need at the moment, and show ones you do.

The code demonstrates how you can get different buttons to call different procedures. Which is all that buttons ever do. That is enough to get you started.

The concept of "a page" is flawed. There are no multiple pages; it's always the same screen, the same program that is running. You could get different procedures to draw different things, but you really have to be thinking about the organization from a different perspective.

well i did copy and paste the code because it was exactly what i needed and also when i said "next page" what i mean is that if someone clicks button1 or button2 then it resets the screen and presents 2 new buttons eg button3 button4 and when they click one of those then goes to another eg button5 button6 i tried to read the Help page but i couldnt find anyhting relevent also google was no help either...

just exit the loop and enter a new loop

I'm having the same problem. I think it's because when you go to the next question, the button's from the last question are still there, its just that you cant see it because you used cls.
If there's a way to clear the whole thing, not just the screen, then that would solve the problem. Anyone have any solutions?

Yes, but such requires an ability to read the thread above.

hide only hides the button. but you can still click the spot where its hidden and it's still there. i also tried dispose but doesn't work either.

Have you even read the documentation or tried it out with code?
