I am trying to make multiple boxes for a game I am working on, forcibly using the drawbox (x1, y1, x2, y2, Color : int) command. I want to make a piano out of a series of boxes but i don't know where the coordinates for the box end up, is there an easier way to do this, maybe a visual grid showing the coordinates or something cause my teacher wants me to use the drawbox command.

Please and Thank you in Advance!

The coordinates are in pixels, with 0,0 in the bottom left corner, so it's like a graph grid.

You can use maxx and maxy to get the coordinate at the edge of the screen.
