How's everybody

i've been fiddling with sprites and it's real exciting....there is some stuff that I
cannot get my head around.
I meant to ask how do I make the whole GameWindow grassy (zip attached).
I tried to stretch the "grass.bmp" in paint but it don't look right...
Thanx.

You should use the DrawBackgroundImage method:

gw.DrawBackgroundImage(AppPath & "\grass.bmp")

Thanx Erel....I Thought of that.

But then how do I handle the event when the user presses on the background?

hi Nicolas,

thats what the NoCollisionMouse Event is for. Thats the "no sprite has been clicked (hence the background has been clicked) event" )

If "gw" is your gamewindow-object you do

Sub gw_NoCollisionMouse
   my_x = gw.X
   my_y = gw.Y
End Sub

to get the click-coordinates.

Hope that helps
Joerg

Thanx a bundle.

It's my bad that I overlooked the NoCollisionMouse event in the helpfile.
