Here i am having function like this. problem i am facing while changing Set parameter section.
first: i could not able to change Set_parameter Window
Second: Since in my loop i am saying if none key pressed display clock.because of that when i enter into Section menu it directly bounce back to Main displaying clock. Is there any way, where i can stay menu section unless Exit/LEFT key pressed
This main function where i am calling my LCD_call Function
void loop()
{
int button;
while(( button = read_LCD_buttons()) != btnNONE)
{
lcd_call();digitalClockDisplay();
}
}
LCD_call being called here.
LCD_call
break command should break/exit the loop.
It could be that the if condition is not coming out to be true, for any input case.
Try debugging your code by placing a break point inside if.
if(button==btnSELECT)
{
break; // place your breakpoint here.
}
and check if your code satifies the if condition for any possible input.
This should work :
void lcd_call()
{
while ( (button = read_LCD_buttons()) != btnSELECT)
{
DS_Counter=Display_selection();
switch (DS_Counter)
{
case 1:
lcd.setCursor(0,0);
digitalClockDisplay();
timedBeep(shortBeep,1);
break;
case 2:
lcd.setCursor(0,0);
Display_angle();
timedBeep(shortBeep,1);
break;
case 3:
lcd.setCursor(0,0);
Display_coordinate();
timedBeep(shortBeep,1);
break;
case 4:
lcd.setCursor(0,0);
Display_Wind();
timedBeep(shortBeep,1);
break;
case 5:
break;
}
}
}
You have already given a condition in While loop. As soon as the condition is false, it will break the while loop

this is my very first post :)
I'm a graphic design student in my second year and we have to make code for business cards.
What I want is when I click with my mouse the background of the business card will change.
It worked with a boolean for two pictures.
But now I want it to work with four images.
Have asked the teacher for help and she sent me information about Switch.
But I have no idea where to put in my code and how to fill it in.
This is my code so far
String Instagram="#Famoys_Saz";
String quote = "Guess my passion ;)";
PFont font;
PImage bg;
PImage Snake2;
PImage snake3;
PImage snake4;
boolean click = true;
void setup() {
size(850, 550);
font = createFont("Galaxyfaceano-4yM9.ttf", 45);
textFont(font);
textAlign(CENTER);
bg = loadImage("Snake.jpg");
Snake2= loadImage ("Snake2.jpg");
click = true;
}
void draw() {
background(bg);
if (click == true ) {
image(bg, 0, 0);
} else {
image(Snake2, 0, 0);
}
text(Instagram, mouseX, mouseY);
text(quote, mouseY, mouseX, 05);
}
void mousePressed() {
click =! click;
}
and this is the code my teacher send me:
if( imageNumber == 1 ) {
} else if ( imageNumber == 2 ) {
} else {
}
Could someone help me out? I'm quite a beginner when it comes to coding.
it will look something like this:
switch( imageNumber ) {
case 1: // same as saying imageNumber == 1
//some code
break;
case 2: // same as saying imageNumber == 2
//some code here
break;
}
switch(imageNumber) {
case 1:
// do stuff
break;
case 2:
// do stuff
break;
case 3:
// do stuff
break;
case 4:
// do stuff
break;
default:
// if no case was selected, do this
}
Switches are easy to read and efficient, and some programmers prefers them to else if. Both are fine, as long as they are readable, but the switch has some unique particularities, like having to use break; between cases. The break; will exit the switch, else it would evaluate every other possible case (thus you're saving some execution time).
It happened to me in a robotic project to deliberately skip the break; statement so the robot would do "everything from this point on", but it's very uncommon and a source of many beginner's bugs to forget the break;.
Depending on the language, switches can evaluate different things, but the classics are integers and strings.
Have fun!
I am trying to clean up movement code I followed from a video tutorial series that was never finished. My intent is for the character to only ever be able to move on X or Y at any given time (so no diagonal). The character has direction facing to keep in mind.
My issue is the player can still press any key they want, or accidently press two keys at the same time.
Ex. if you move Up and make a right turn, accidentally press Right before letting go of Up.
Or if you press Up, press and let go Right to make a slight movement right while continuing to press Up, the player should continue to move up after letting go of Right without having to re-press Up. etc.
Just to make sure all possible input cases are handled intuitively.
EDIT: This is the code so far and I'm getting weird errors I don't know what's wrong

You should basically clean up your code by separating the logic between key events and player movement. So your update() method could look like this:
void update() override
{
updateKeyState();
updateMovement();
}
Since you want the player to move only vertically or horizontally (never diagonally), you have to store the key press order in a data structure that can be easily accessed. I think you could use a doubly-linked list:
std::list<SDL_Event> keyDownList;
and we should also store the last key pressed in order to restore the idle animation of the player:
SDL_Event lastDirection;
The updateKeyState() method should add or remove the key to/from the linked list. We should also check if the player wants to leave the game by pressing ESC:
void updateKeyState() {
if (Game::event.type == SDLK_ESCAPE) {
Game::isRunning = false;
} else if (Game::event.type == SDL_KEYDOWN) {
keyDownList.push_back(Game::event.key.keysym.sym);
} else if (Game::event.type == SDL_KEYUP) {
keyDownList.remove(Game::event.key.keysym.sym);
}
}
The updatePlayerMovement() method is where the magic happens. We should basically check which key was pressed first and update the player position accordingly. We also save the down key in the lastDirection field in order to use it when no key is pressed.
void updateMovement() {
// if any key is down
if (keyDownList.size() > 0) {
const SDL_Event downKey = keyDownList.front();
switch (downKey) {
case SDLK_w:
transform->velocity.y = -1;
transform->velocity.x = 0;
sprite->Play("BackWalk");
lastDirection = downKey;
break;
case SDLK_a:
transform->velocity.x = -1;
transform->velocity.y = 0;
sprite->Play("SideWalk");
sprite->spriteFlip = SDL_FLIP_HORIZONTAL;
lastDirection = downKey;
break;
case SDLK_s:
transform->velocity.y = 1;
transform->velocity.x = 0;
sprite->Play("FrontWalk");
lastDirection = downKey;
break;
case SDLK_d:
transform->velocity.x = 1;
transform->velocity.y = 0;
sprite->Play("SideWalk");
sprite->spriteFlip = SDL_FLIP_NONE;
lastDirection = downKey;
break;
}
} else {
// no key is down, handle idle situations
transform->velocity.x= 0;
transform->velocity.y = 0;
switch (lastDirection) {
case SDLK_w:
sprite->Play("BackIdle");
break;
case SDLK_a:
sprite->Play("SideIdle");
break;
case SDLK_s:
sprite->Play("FrontIdle");
break;
case SDLK_d:
sprite->Play("SideIdle");
break;
}
}
}
Note: I haven't tested this code because I don't have the code and structures from your game. So you may have to edit a piece here and there to make it work for you.
I wrote a func that help me move my car with SDL
if (events.type == SDL_KEYDOWN)
{
switch(events.key.keysym.sym)
{
case SDLK_UP:
y_val -=main_car_speed;
break;
case SDLK_DOWN:
y_val +=main_car_speed;
break;
case SDLK_RIGHT:
x_val +=main_car_speed;
break;
case SDLK_LEFT:
x_val -=main_car_speed;
break;
}
It's pretty simple. But I got a problem that when I press up and left. My car just go ahead, instead of go ahead and left at the sametime.
How can I solve this problem?
Using events, if you press 'left' after having pressed 'up', your program will stop receiving events for the 'up' key-presses and will instead receive only 'left' key-presses. If you want to know whether keys are pressed or not pressed at any moment in time, rather than react to when they are first pressed, the following code should help you:
// inside main loop, after events have been handled
const Uint8* keystates = SDL_GetKeyboardState(NULL);
if (keystate[SDL_SCANCODE_UP]){
y_val -= main_car_speed;
}
if (keystate[SDL_SCANCODE_LEFT]){
x_val -= main_car_speed;
}
Have a look at the Documentation for SDL_GetKeyboardState for details
I have created a drawGrid() function that draws a squared grid along my X and Y axis, which works fine. I have then created a menu() function (called in the main()), that toggles the grid on and off, here's the code for that:
void menu(int item)
{
switch (item)
{
case MENU_SWITCH_OFF_GRID:
{
if (gridActive == true)
{
gridActive = true;
}
}
break;
case MENU_SWITCH_ON_GRID:
{
if (gridActive == true)
{
gridActive = false;
}
}
break;
default:
{ /* Nothing */ }
break;
}
glutPostRedisplay();
return;
}
}
The menu switch works fine, as I have created a global variable called gridActive without a true or false value so it doesn't reset each time, that way it can be accessed in my display() function like so:
if (gridActive != true)
{
drawGrid();
gridActive = true;
}
All of this works just fine.
What's my issue?
My issue is, whenever I click the left mouse button, my grid disappears, which I don't want. So I've made a mouse() function like this:
case GLUT_LEFT_BUTTON: if (state == GLUT_DOWN)
{
exit(0); // this has been added to see if
// my program will exit!
}
break;
To test if my program exits when I click the left mouse, and it does.
So instead of using exit(0); what code can i put here so that my grid doesn't disappear when I click the left mouse button? Or is the issue beyond that?
UPDATE:
Here's the mouse function:
void mouse(int button, int state, int x, int y)
{
// these have simply been set-up for me to use
// in the future
switch (button)
{
case GLUT_LEFT_BUTTON: if (state == GLUT_DOWN)
{
}
break;
case GLUT_RIGHT_BUTTON: if (state == GLUT_DOWN)
{
}
break;
default: break;
}
}
Based on your code:
if (gridActive != true)
{
drawGrid();
gridActive = true;
}
You only draw the grid when gridActive is false. However, after every time you draw it, you set gridActive=true which will then stop it from being drawn.
Without more of your code, it's impossible to tell exactly what's going on, but these lines may not be doing what you think they are, and that may be causing some issues.
This never does anything.
if (gridActive == true)
{
gridActive = true;
}
This:
if (gridActive == true)
{
gridActive = false;
}
is the same as:
gridActive = false;
In order to tell what's going on, though, we need to know what happens when you click your mouse button when the exit call isn't there, but you didn't post that code yet.
Also, i don't quite know what you mean by:
I have created a global variable called gridActive without a true or false value so it doesn't reset each time
but it sounds like you made an uninitialized global variable and expect that it has some specific meaning because it's uninitialized?
I'm in the process of migrating a program from GLUT to SDL. In my current program pressing the a key results in a different response then pressing the A key. This was pretty straightforward to do in GLUT as it the keyboard function callback passed in the ASCII value of the key that was pressed.
void keyPressedFn(unsigned char key, int x, int y){
switch(key){
case 'a':
// do work for a
break;
case 'A':
// do work for A
break;
}
}
I'm struggling to replicate similar functionality in SDL as pressing the a key produces the same response regardless of if SHIFT or CAPS LOCK are pressed as well.
Is there a simple way of replicating the above function in SDL?
Edit: In the example above I only show how to handle one key, in practice however, I am going to have a list of about 15 keys that I want to respond to differently if the shift key is pressed as well.
Check the keyboard modifiers that are present when you get a keydown event. For example:
while(SDL_PollEvent(&event))
{
switch(event.type)
{
case SDL_KEYDOWN:
if(event.key.keysym.sym == SDLK_a)
{
if(event.key.keysym.mod & KMOD_SHIFT)
{
// Handle 'A'
}
else
{
// Handle 'a'
}
}
break;
...
}
}
SDL_keysym has mod field, which contains state of modifier keys at the time the event has been emitted. Bit-AND it with KMOD_SHIFT to check whether Shift has been active. See SDL wiki.
Why not just do this?
void keyPressedFn(unsigned char key, int x, int y){
switch(key){
case 'a':
case 'A':
// do work for A or a
break;
}
}
Do you have some other concerns that you cannot do as what I have suggested? If not I think this is as simple as it can get.
