Graphics help...

Oct 4th, 2007
Hey everyone. Noob poster here so bear with me. So the code below makes a drawing of a face move around the graphics window. However, the face is noseless. My dilema is that I absolutely can't figure out how to add a nose to the face and have it move around with the face as well. As far as I know, there is no way to create a triangle, only a polygon but a polygon requires specific coordinates to create it. How do I make a triangle nose for this guy, writing code in relation to the face and not using general coordinates? If any of what I said made sense... Also, I tried to write some code to do this, and the code that I did is currently set as a note. Any help would be appreciated. No need for a straight anwer if you don't want, just something to help get me moving. Thanks all.

I am not familiar with this old graphics module, but generally you draw the face inside a rectangle/frame/canvas and move the whole rectangle/frame/canvas around.

May 'the Google' be with you!
