Hello there,

Is it possible to resize a 2D box made using dbBox?

I'm now trying to create a simple GUI class for my game, but I want to keep it medialess, so I choosed to start with Basic2D commands.

But unfortunately it's lacking of built-in commands. I prefer more advanced features like what we can do with Sprites.

But I don't want to use any media for it >.< Perhaps only boxes and lines (for the outline, if the box can't have its own outline)

If it's not possible, can you suggest other alternative commands to create such thing?


Thanks.

dbBox() is a drawing command. It doesn't create a numbered 2D object type like a sprite or an image. Since you're probably drawing the box for every frame just draw it with different dimensions when you need to.

Ah, yeah

Then simply create some variables that stores its x1, x2, y1, y2 and then change it inside the while loop right before calling the dbBox.

Thanks for your reply
