hello, I’m new at this. can a rotating shape be moved with mouseX and mouseY?

Hello @Janoer , Yes! Look into the references for: translate() pushMatrix() rotate() popMatrix() Tutorial: https://processing.org/tutorials/transform2d Additional examples: http://learningprocessing.com/examples/ See Chapter on transformations :)

Thank you for helping me out! what if the shape rotate but when moved by mousex and mouse y, the shape doesn’t change? like this. and where should I put the mousex and mousey if i want like that [ezgif.com-video-to-gif]

Hey, welcome to the forum! It’s best when you post your code first The general idea is rectMode(CENTER); translate (300,300); rotate (mouseX); rect(0,0,60,20); Example void setup() { size(900, 900); rectMode(CENTER); background(0); } void draw() { background(0); push(); translat…

Thank you so much for helping me!

when you want to change both, pos and angle, use left and right mouse button. Of course you can change this, for example, click center of rect = change pos click circle at the top = change angle click corner = change size I haven’t done this, code would be similar, except for mousePressed() /…

I really thank you for helping me. May i ask again? How this sun has trails without having to move the background to void setup? void setup() { size (700,700); } void draw() { background(255); stroke(0); strokeWeight(3); //sun stroke(0); fill(255,255,0); ellipse(mouseX+150,mouseY-200,100,100);…

Thank you for the explanation! I have tried it, but there is an error. Here is the code ArrayList<Ellipse> listFootprints = new ArrayList(); void setup() { size (700,700); smooth(); } void draw() { background(255); // draw FootPrints drawFootPrints(); // show size of the list (for testin…

I’m much obliged for your help all this time!
