1. Some basic stuff

I'm new to programming, so bear with me. Okay, I'm trying to get some simple demos to work. The one I'm currently working on involves using the mouse to click on drawn boxes to get different effects. However, a problem I found is with the get_mouse() function. It returns the actions and Y-axis of the mouse correctly, but the X-axis is twice as much as it should be. I solved this easily enough, but I'm curious as to what's wrong. By the way, Jacques Deschene, thanks for the Sound Blaster code. Good work. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -=-=-=-= The Reaper ||||||||||| reaper at auracom.com $ @ @ $ "This is not a quote." \ ! / Or is it? \=====/ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- =-=-=-=- (yes, the signature does need work...)

I've used get_mouse() in the "A Beginner's Guide To Euphoria" tutorial and I have not seen any evidence that the x axis co-ordinate is double what it should be. For example, if I click my mouse at pixel location 320,200 in graphics mode 18 (where x is 320 and y is 200), I get back 320,200 as the pixel co-ordinate pair. What screen mode do your demos run in? Thanks David Gay

Also, I had Jacques Duschene's (pardon the spelling) Sound Blaster source code loaded in, if that makes any difference. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -=-=-=-= The Reaper ||||||||||| reaper at auracom.com $ @ @ $ "This is not a quote." \ ! / Or is it? \=====/ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- =-=-=-=- (yes, the signature does need work...)
