I'm working on creating an interactive timeline that includes the RSS feeds from several blogs. I've been experimenting with the Rome Feeder library to import the titles of each blog entry to the timeline. The examples that the author of the Rome Feeder library provided are very limited and I would like to know more about how to use it in other ways than they have presented. Simply put, my code thus far has included the timeline with squares that you can click to show different entries but I cannot get just one title from each blog post onto each one of the buttons. I have only been able to get the text to appear using
entry=feeder.next();
if(entry !=null)
text(entry.getTitle(),15,110,360,230);
on the second button.
entry=feeder.next(); is not what I want because all it does is draw all of the blog entry titles and then ends without displaying anything.
The other issue I have is how to grab these blog entries URLs and make them available when you click these blog titles, I haven't even attempted to do this yet because I haven't found any examples of someone doing this.
here is my code thus far
if this makes any sense please hook me up with some possible solutions
i've written this program that draws iterated rectangles with various sizes depending on on how fast you drag the mouse. What i'm having trouble doing is making the squares fall and disappear from the screen after a second or so after the squares are drawn. I've experimented with if (millis() > 3000) {x++;} to try and move the y coordinate of the rectangles three seconds after they are drawn. obviously i've tried it several different ways within the structure and it doesn't seem to work. i could be possibly using the wrong approach to this or i may be overlooking something really obvious. here is my code without any code to try and drop the rectangles, let me no what you think.
//program that draws random squares of color when mouse is moved. squares change size with how fast mouse moves.squares float to bottom three seconds after they are drawn.
