I can`t load an Image as background.

Exception in thread “Thread-212”

void setup() {
  size( 1366, 768);
    PImage bg;
bg = loadImage("qrC6FvL.jpg");
}
void draw() {

  background(bg);
  fill(0, 255, 0);
  rect (300, 300, 300, 300);
  textSize(32);
  fill(0, 51, 0);
  text("WAHR", 400, 450);

  fill(255, 0, 0);
  rect (700, 300, 300, 300);
  textSize(32);
  fill( 128, 0, 0);
  text("FALSCH", 800, 450);
}

-a- the variable bg should be global declared, above setup()
( but loaded in setup() ( correct ) )

-b- be sure that the picture size fits to the canvas size or

background(bg);

will not work.
can use resize();

look here first,

this doesnt work either: @kll

PImage bg;
void setup() {
size( 1366, 768);
bg = loadImage("qrC6FvL.jpg");
}
void draw() {

  background(bg);
  fill(0, 255, 0);
  rect (300, 300, 300, 300);
  textSize(32);
  fill(0, 51, 0);
  text("WAHR", 400, 450);

  fill(255, 0, 0);
  rect (700, 300, 300, 300);
  textSize(32);
  fill( 128, 0, 0);
  text("FALSCH", 800, 450);
}

This code looks good to me

i asked you to check the size / or much better /

  • instead with background(bg)
  • start with image(bg,0,0);

to see what you got
