clear screen no working

[bvbjules13]

What is it you are trying to achieve?
clearing the screen

What is the problem you are having?
when i clear the screen the buttons i created wont go away not does the animation; i just get a frozen animation; im clearing the screen in the procedure corresponding with the button push; when i push the button everything clears but the button and then if i click the button again it goes away

Post any relevant code (You may choose to attach the file instead of posting the code if it is too long)

Turing:

process Snow %process to have the snow animation and the title     View.Set ("offscreenonly") %doing eveything from here offscreen     loop         Draw.Fill (1, 1, 16, 124) %making the whole screen black except the letters                 button := GUI.CreateButton (500, 300, 0, "SINGLE PLAYER", Single) %button for single player mode         button := GUI.CreateButton (505, 270, 0, "MULTIPLAYER", Multiplayer) %button for multiplayer mode         for i : 1 .. 500             snow (i) := Rand.Int (1, 10) %assigning the amount the snowflake falls by             yy (i) := yy (i) - snow (i) %subtracting the amount the snowflake falls by (so that the snowflake falls)             if yy (i) < 0 then %if the snowflake reached the bottom; reset the variable for the snowflake                 yy (i) := Rand.Int (600, 700) %reassigning the snowflakes the hit the bottom of the screen; back to the top             end if             Draw.FillOval (xx (i), yy (i), 1, 1, white) %drawing the snowflake         end for         View.Update %updating what is on the screen         delay (30)         exit when done = true %when the hangman portion of the game starts; or instructions page     end loop     View.Set ("nooffscreenonly") end Snow %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% fork PlayMusic %plays music fork Snow  %starts the whole game; including animation and start page loop     exit when GUI.ProcessEvent end loop

Please specify what version of Turing you are using

You can't clear buttons with cls. You need to manually delete them with GUI.dispose or make them invisible with GUI.hide. Also, you're creating buttons in a loop. That's going to make it run very slowly.

code:

loop     exit when GUI.ProcessEvent end loop

What is the point of this loop? It doesn't do anything.

'Snow' should not be a process. It should be a procedure.

i need to create the buttons in the loop or they wont display, and i tried GUI.Dispose it didnt work

Then you're doing it wrong.
