Leader\follower animation
Sep 10th, 2008, 4:13pm  
Hello everybody...

I am desperetly trying to make a simple( not for me ) animation!

what i am trying to do is to make a color tracker ( a simple ellipse that finds a color you asked for)act as a leader which drags behind itself some other ellipses...Basically i can't understand how to make other ellipse follow the leader!
I found some exampls in the processing menu (file>examples>topic>interaction>follow1,2,3)
but all of them use the mousex and mousey paramters...How can i "tell" the spheres to follow the color tracker?

can anyone help??

p.s.
just to be clearer, the color tracking is just fine. Problem is dragging things!

Replace mouseX and mouseY with the x and y locations of the tracked colour?

Perhaps posting your code would make it easier to help
