Hey, I was just starting this program to calculate the RPM/speed/torque of a cars preformance, and when I tell it to write the values on the chart on the screen, it never stays there and once it shows it, it disappears Confused and also when it is writing down the values it is flashing, and i tried the View.Set ("graphics:offscreenonly") and the View.Update but it still did it... any ideas how to correct these?

well if you have the new turing, you can use View.UpdateArea(x,y,x1,y1) to jut update a certain area, and your values wont stay on screen because you must be using a cls after you put them to the screen

hmm.. I tried that View.UpdateArea code, never worked. and i dont have a cls in my loop for it.. but the thing is, when it runs through the values only one column stays up there, which is the most recent written code and the others stay up there (but flashing) for the time that it runs through the values... its sort of hard to explain what it does Sad

I have a feeling this is something really easy, but since im a n00b at turing i cant seem to crack it Embarassed

it would help to see your output code Thinking no need for the full program (cuz if you post a lot of code, not many people will bother reading it). Just the part of the code that has the put statements for your chart.

View.Set ("graphics:offscreenonly") doesn't work.
the correct syntax is
code:
View.Set ("offscreenonly")

if you want something else in there (ie graphics), separate with a comma.
code:
View.Set ("graphics:500;400,offscreenonly")




below is just something interesting I've noticed about View.Update and "offscreenonly"

try this:
code:
View.Set ("offscreenonly")
put "hey"

no view.Update, but still outputs it


however, if you do this
code:
View.Set ("offscreenonly")
loop
    put "hey"
end loop

it won't output it. it needs a View.Update..

strange huh?

D'OC Student? Anyways, attach the code, I'll look at it.

Talking to kawaNinja. I used to Teach in Ajax (In Windsor now) at D'OC. The computer teacher at D'OC is still a very good friend of mine.

No He's my student though (He has a marketing degree, I taught him to program, taught him MTG too Wink , I also taught him that guardians can out-range 'goons")

Ok, I tried that View.Set stuff and it didnt work (the whole screen went white) but i took out the loops and it still went white.. so Confused

D'OC Student?


and no i dont goto D'OC i goto Notre Dame.. not sure if you heard of it depending when you left (opened 3 years ago), but i know that there are quite a few teachers from D'OC that teach at my school now..
Mr O'Connor is one that i had just this past semester... when did you teach there?

And finally my code... ok this is the hard part because my code is very long.. (but in not sure if all of it is necasary because i usually always take the long way in life Rolling Eyes ), and the way its set up i pretty much have to add all of it.. anyways;

(by the way, press the UP arrow and hold it down to view the values on the chart)
code:

var chars : array char of boolean
var second : int := 0
process time_count


Input.KeyDown (chars)
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 1
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 2
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 3
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 4
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 5
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 6
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 7
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 8
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 9
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 10
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 11
end if

if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 12
end if

second := 13
end if

if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 14
end if
delay (1000)
if chars (KEY_UP_ARROW) then
second := 15
end if
