Senior Project. Help!! Making Rollovers Stay After being Rolled Over

ccastro

Hi!

We're working on our senior project and need help making rollovers stay on the screen once they've been rolled over. We're using basic mouseX and mouseY to define where the rollovers appear. The rollovers appear on top of a live camera feed taken from a webcam. We aren't too advanced and aren't using object oriented programming. We're not sure if the answer is a boolean or maybe a function? We just need a small example to put us in the right direction.

If there's any one who can help we'd greatly appreciate it :)

Here's a look at our code if it helps:

//-----------------------------------------------video stuff

import processing.video.*;
Capture video;

//-----------------------------------------------variables

Here's a look at our code if it helps:

please format the code, it's obviously a mess

edit post, highlight the code, press ctrl-o

@ccastro --

Making rollovers stay after being rolled over ... we're not sure if the answer is a boolean or maybe a function?

Consider your rollover approach:

• If mouse is here: show image A.

Now think through adding the boolean approach you suggest:

• If mouse is here: set flag A to true.
• If flag A is true: show image A.

Now, if the mouse is ever here, from then on the image A will always be shown.

Does this help?
