this must have come up before...
« on: Nov 27th, 2002, 4:40am »

but I can't find the reference...this is really basic, and is more a documentation problem than anything.  Please bear with me....
 
this code works fine, making a long skinny window for processing:
 
void setup(){
  size(1000,75);
  colorMode(RGB);
  background(0);
}
void loop(){
}
 
while flipping the colorMode() and the size() commands gives you the default 100x100 window.  I seem to remember that there's some issue with the order of commands in setup(), but couldn't remember it for what felt like forever.  You guys might want to put a little blurb in the documentation of the size() command as a reminder of this behavior, or if there are other quirks, make a documentation entry for the setup() function.
 
thanks again.

yeah, size() has to come first, because it sets up all the graphics stuff underneath..  
 
i coulda sworn we had that somewhere, but you're right.. that's an important one. easy enough to make a note of that. hopefully this won't be a restriction in the future.
 
thanks for the note..

as of rev 60, size() no longer needs to come first. rejoice.
