Well I am currently re-coding my OS and I have run into a slight issue. I am making an icon that is suppose to be a shell. Basically its a black rectangle with "> Shell" printed on the top right to make it look like a real shell. All of this is within a while loop to check for mouse_click. My question is how can I make that text that was printed ontop of the image change like so. So first state would be "> Shell" the other state would be " Shell" as to simulate blinking.
It wouldnt be much of a problem. Just put it in a while loop with the states as a variable and whether the state is 1 or 0 then the text would be in that state. The problem is that when put into a while loop thats checking for mouse_click it simply doesn't work.
Yes it is indented in my editor, for some reason the website didn't like it:(
