How can I use a string variable inside Font.Draw

-----------------------------------

What I'm trying to do should be pretty simple. I first get a name, the I use the name the user input later in my program inside Font.Draw.



var font : int := Font.New ("times:70")
var p1name, p2name : string

Put "Enter P1 Name"
get p1name
Put "Enter P2 Name"
get p2name

Font.Draw ("Hello"+ p1name + ". How are you?", 20, 650, font, purple)

Font.Draw ("Hello"+ p2name + ". How are you?", 20, 650, font, purple)

You are doing everything right except you are drawing the string outside the window, so you don't see it. Try using a y-coordinate of 100 instead of 650.
