Hi I'm really new to this, a very simple question.... (rect())

Hi, I have been using Max Msp for 18 months now and immediately got the programming bug......

I discovered Processing after buying an Arduino, and set about to teach myself through books/tutorials.

I simply want to know why this code doesn't do what i expected it to;

// simple test, squares getting bigger coming from top left of window

size(500, 500);

rect(10, 10, 10, 10);
rect(10, 10, 20, 20);
rect(10, 10, 30, 30);
rect(10, 10, 40, 40);
rect(10, 10, 50, 50);

Instead of 5 squares, each one getting bigger, coming from the same point; 10 pixels in and ten down.... it just makes a square of the last size

thankyou for your time

peace

Danny

koogs

each rectangle is being filled with white, overwriting the previous rectangle.

use noFill();
