Pic.FileNew

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

What is it you are trying to achieve?
I am trying to get the Pic.FileNew function to work


What is the problem you are having?
the Pic.FileNew function is not working


Describe what you have tried to solve this problem
I have looked in the Turing reference, and the example program is not functioning properly

When I run the example program (below), it comes up saying "Illegal picture ID number '0'. (Probable cause: picture was not successfully created.)"


% The "Pic.FileNew" program.
var picID : int
var x, y : int

picID := Pic.FileNew ("%oot/Support/Help/Examples/Data Files/lighthouse.jpg")
for i : 1 .. 10
    x := Rand.Int (0, maxx)             % Random x
    y := Rand.Int (0, maxy)             % Random y
    Pic.Draw (picID, x, y, picCopy)
end for
Pic.Free (picID)



Please specify what version of Turing you are using
4.1.1

RE:Pic.FileNew

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

Is there a file at the location:

var path := "%oot/Support/Help/Examples/Data Files/lighthouse.jpg"
put File.FullPath (path)
put File.Exists (path)
