Clearing GUI items

avsrule247 · **Posted:** Sat Jan 13, 2007 9:46 am

Hey,

Basically I have a program with a menu at the top. When I start the program, you choose a menu option, and then it draws a few image buttons on the screen. When you click on a image button, I want all the buttons to clear. The problem is that if I use CLS then it clears the menu as well. How do I make it so when you click on a button, it only clears the buttons off the screen, and NOT the menu?

Why don't you just cls then redraw the menu? Alternatively, you could Draw.FillBox over everything but the menu. I'd recommend the first solution, however. It's more self consistent and will make things easier.

What are the parameters of Draw.FillBox?

Draw.FillBox (x1, y1, x2, y2, Color : int)

are the parmenters, you can look this up in Turing Documentation

Its Under Help -> Turing Reference; Inside Turing

or by hitting F10 in Turing

Also close to all the commands you will ever need are posted there.
