What is the problem you are having?

How can I carry out the sum on one window to another window using GUI?

Here is part of my program:


procedure windowBCheckout
GUI.HideWindow (defWinID)
GUI.ShowWindow (WindowBCheckout)
end windowBCheckout

count:int:=0

procedure windowtouch
count := count + 199
put count
end windowtouch

buttontouch := GUI.CreateButton (765, 350, 0, "Add to Cart", windowtouch)

in another window:

windowtouch %but this gives me 0 instead of 199

Let say I have a bunch of calculations on one window, how would I carry out the sum to another window?
It's really difficult to explain on this website S:

You switch between windows using their IDs.

Each window (except the default) should be bound to a variable (window1, window2, whatever). The default window has a static ID (though I forget what it is).

There's a Window.setActive() command (or something like that) where you pass the window you want to use as the active window. All screen output will go to this screen. Then you can switch back as necessary.

code:

%Pseudocode win1 = Window.Open ("Graphics") win2 = Window.Open ("Graphics") Window.setActive (win1) %do calculations Window.setActive (win2) put sum

The default window (the one that pops up automatically when you draw/put something) has a specific ID (probably 1) that you can pass to the setActive function (so you would call Window.setActive(1) to activate the default window).

the default window's constant is defWinID which = -1
