ok I am almost done doing what I need to do and that is getting a portion of a bitmap to appear on the screen and have it move around using directional controls. My problem is that while I get the the bitmap move it leaves the original behind and a new one appears in the direction I pressed. Then when I take my finger off the button it returns to the middle.
So basically I want to make the bitmap that was in the previous position disappear and have the bitmap stay in the position I put it in so I can move it around like if I was playing zelda. The bitmap problem is the problem I really want to solve.
