I have created a time table everything works, the only problem is when I click my mouse it changes to what I wanted but doesn’t go back. Can any one help. Thanks

please, for testing logic you first need to SEE it
so you might UNDERSTAND it.

i cut it out of your code for you:

int winter= #26619C; // Declare an int named winter, assigned the value #26619C;
int fall=   #c67727; // Declare an int named fall, assigned the value #c67727;

void setup() {
  size (800, 1000); // Makes the window 800x1000 pixels
}

void draw() {
  background(fall);
}

void mouseClicked() {
  if (fall==#c67727) {
    fall = winter;
  } else {
    winter=fall;
  }
}

that might help you solve it.

I’m not 100% sure, but is the problem in mouse clicked where the initial mouse click changes fall to winter but since it’s winter clicking it again won’t do anything?

4

you want select ( possibly more that once ) between 2 colors,
so you should never overwrite their settings.

define one more variable like color bg
and then assign it with fall or winter …

I’m sorry but I don’t really understand could you elaborate?

does this code help?

int winter= #26619C;
int fall=   #c67727;

color bg;

void setup() {
  size (500, 500);
  bg = fall;
}

void draw() {
  background(bg);
}

void mousePressed() {
  if ( bg == fall ) bg = winter;
  else              bg = fall;
}

Thanks for that solution, I made the adjustment, the colors change back and forth but not the other variables.

when you work Processing IDE ( PDE ) please use /Edit / Autoformat OR [ctrl][t]
your logic is still not readable.

anyhow if the background color change the if () {} else {}
works, the rest must be execute too,
if it makes sense i can not see from here,
why that shuffling of variable anyhow?
looks like the same wrong thinking like with the color? but not sure.

9

I hope this makes it easier to read. I have everything under the same curly bracket for the else and the reason I shuffled the variables is so that it goes back and forth.

void mouseClicked() {
  if (bg==fall) {
    
bg = winter;

    comsci=chemistry;                    

    ela=social;  

    math=gym;  

    science=design;  



    teacher5=teacher1;

    teacher6=teacher2;

    teacher7=teacher3;

    teacher4=teacher4;


    course5=course1;

    course8=course2;

    course6=course3;

    course7=course4;

    roomscience=roomdesign;

i say use [ctrl][t]

you understand that we can not run your code as we not have the pictures…

if i disable them all,
i can click on the canvas and actually see same as with your first color code,
only the first click works, then all the variable are equalized and next click can not change anything…

so basically you still not understand variables…
and i could not teach you anything
my fault

11

I used [ctrl][t] in processing and it gave me that. I don’t want the solution handed to me I want to learn, but could you explain further about what equalized means. My assumption is that the first click converts one variable to the other and the converted variable is what I listed under else and I made the statement that the converted variable shall return to its original.

12

I get it now. I understand what you mean now when I was overwriting the settings. Thanks for the tips
