Move image around screen

Processing Coding Questions
1
  • The first task will be to get the images to appear on the screen and to give the interface a screen size that works with the background image.
  • Once this is complete, try to get the image object to move around the screen.
  • As this is a fictional exercise, the starting position can be random, while the starting trajectory can be fixed.
  • The interface will be restriction to a bounded 2D space, for this reason the object should bounce off the sides of the containing window and return in the opposite direction.
  • The object only needs to move in 4 directions, North-East, South-East, South-West and North-West.

That’s a task that has been given to you

That’s not how the forum works

Instead please write some
code and then tell us where you are stuck

Hints: go to reference page and check PImage and loadImage…
