So this is an extremely fundamental question. I'm having problems getting the loop() function to work. Ideally, the program will restart with the click of the mouse, but it's not working. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?


int frame = 0;

void setup () {
 size (1000,800);
 smooth ();
 fill (0);
 background (random(210,255));
}

void draw () {
strokeWeight (random (.05,.2));
 println(frameCount);
 line (10, random (10,990), 990, random (10,990));
 if ((frameCount % 500)==0) {
 saveFrame("x-####.tif");
 }
}
 
void mousePressed () {
loop ();
frame =0;
}

if i get it right, all you want to do is start again, so calling background and clear the screen should be enough. no need to use, loop noloop...

try this :

void mousePressed () {
 background (random(210,255));
}
