Also, are you sure you typed as exactly View.Update? ----------------------------------- misfit Sat Dec 13, 2003 9:24 pm ----------------------------------- I'm putting the View.Update in the loop after i use Pic.Draw. And yes i'm typing it exactly because if I didn't the error would be that the variable hasn't been declared since they would think it was a variable. ----------------------------------- DanShadow Sat Dec 13, 2003 9:28 pm ----------------------------------- hmm...your having an error...what version do you have? 3,4,4.04...? (Also maybe try putting View.Update before adding picture in.) [PS] If it were a typo, it would probably think it was a procedure not variable, heh. ----------------------------------- misfit Sat Dec 13, 2003 9:34 pm ----------------------------------- My version of turing is 4.0.4. and it still has an error with View.Update no matter where i put it in the program. ----------------------------------- DanShadow Sat Dec 13, 2003 9:44 pm ----------------------------------- ok thats really weird. I have Turing 4.0.4 tooo...and I am not having problems like that at all...ever...wait a second! Is the GUI uploaded on your program? If so, take out the GUI completely, that is what is screwing you up. I have had many problems similar to that with GUI present, so I never use it. But if GUI isnt out...then sorr y, I cant help ya. ----------------------------------- misfit Sat Dec 13, 2003 9:52 pm ----------------------------------- I'm new to turing :oops: ....what is the GUI and how so you get it out ----------------------------------- drumersrule123 Sat Dec 13, 2003 10:14 pm ----------------------------------- type GUI on to the screen and only GUI then press f9 i can't remember if you have to highlight GUI or not And what do you you use View.Update for ----------------------------------- DanShadow Sat Dec 13, 2003 10:36 pm ----------------------------------- GUI is the Graphical User Interface. It allows you to have real buttons, text fields, scroll bars, etc. But if you dont know what it is, you probably dont use it. If you do, it will say something like this at the top of your code include %gui/oot/system" ----------------------------------- Andy Tue Dec 16, 2003 8:11 pm ----------------------------------- gui in turing sux... its better if u make ur own ----------------------------------- misfit Thu Dec 18, 2003 4:30 pm ----------------------------------- ok i my teacher gave me a new turing cd and View.Update is now working
