[Tutorials] Pictures/Images

[Insectoid]

If you have a valid question, necroing a tutorial is perfectly fine. What version of Turing are you using? The original tutorial looks dated to me, written before JPGs were supported. I suggest looking through other people's code or posting your code in the help section. Then we can help better.

wtf is the A suppose to do after you specify the location of the pic. I can get it to work. Im noob at this.. it's only been my first 2 weeks with turing.

[Insectoid]

That is a graphical error. Ignore it.

use Pic.FileNew ("blahblahblah.bmp")

[bigone150]

var Alien : int := Pic.FileNew ("Alien.bmp")
Pic.Draw (Alien, 520, 195, 0) % 520,1



hmm that is my coding for a picture i wanna keep at coordinates 520,195... when i run it it comes up as a blank screen even when i have all my coding... there.
Also while im at it i would like to make the picture shake left right a bit as its an alien.. IF someone could reply to this fast. I would really appreciate it as its due in 45 mins..

Hey so i've read the tutorial on printing, I have a question though, is there any way to print a picture?

[syntax_error]

You would have to write your own function for that to be remotely possible; I am certain there is no in built function with turing.

Is it possible to use the same image more than once at a time?

Yes.

And how would one go about doing that?

[TheGuardian001]

The same way you did it the first time.

code:

var myImg : int := Pic.FileNew("MyImage.jpg") Pic.Draw(myImg,10,10,picMerge) Pic.Draw(myImg,300,300,picMerge)

K wat if ive got a forked backround looping, but continueously 'cls'ing? for me the picture just flickers
and how do i post code so i can show you?

[Jfenty15]

here but warning this could cause siezures or epileptic reactions so beware: View.Set ("graphics:1200;800, nobuttonbar")

var i : int := 0

procedure sticky (y : real)
var stickyleft : int := Pic.FileNew ("Sticky left.GIF")
var stickyright : int := Pic.FileNew ("Sticky right.GIF")
if y = 1 then
cls
Pic.Draw (stickyleft, maxx div 2, maxy div 2, picCopy)
elsif y = 2 then
cls
Pic.Draw (stickyright, maxx div 2, maxy div 2, picCopy)
end if
end sticky

process playstuff
loop
Music.PlayFile ("Full Double Rainbow.wav")
end loop
end playstuff

process backround
loop
if Rand.Real > 0.5 then

for x : 32 .. 54
colorback (x)
cls
end for
end if
end loop
end backround


fork playstuff
fork backround
loop
for y : 1 .. 2
sticky (y)
end for
end loop

Drawing the background and foreground at the same time is just a bad idea. I'll let you figure out as to why that is.

[TokenHerbz]

ya terrible, try also offscreenonly and View.Update to help smooth things over.

[Jfenty15]

is there a way to clear backround and for ground seperatly?
