Yes, oogabooga's first example does work. I am not using MSVS, but I don't think that matters since his codes work.

I have been working with simple graphics programs using graphics.h, and I noticed a problem while using it. When I run the program, it opens the graphics window and the text input and output window....

thanks a ton, it does make sense that you have to make the variable equal to getch() each time you want to change it

sorry, I didn't see your other post until after

I am writing a program that moves a simple rectangle around a graphics window, and I want to use a WASD style control scheme to do this. I was wondering how I would get the box to move according to...
