Setting a Picture as the Background
-----------------------------------
dumb question:

is there a command in turing like the colourback command that allows you to set a picture as the permanent background for the program (rather that drawing everything ontop of a picture)???

is that not essentially what colorback is doing? making a big picture of a solid colour on the back? Just use a picture the size of the background and use View.Update.

I know, but when u use colourback I don't think u need to say the command agian ater you draw each thing. I was wondering if ther was a way to do it without keeping on saying Pic.ScreenLoad

eh... restore only the modified background area

View.UpdateArea()

that would be faster, if that is what you are after
