Lets say i have rooms called

room1
room2

in room1 there are many objects in the room. Lets say when i press space i want to take a snapshot of the room then goto room2 and change room2's background with taken snapshot.

how can i do this?

Hey there,

Im using these codes on step event for an object

window_mouse_set(room_width/2,room_height/2)

it immobilizes mouse position on center of screen.

My question is when user goes to desktop he/she doesnt move mouse because it is immobilized.

How to check if an application(my game) is active?

if background_add_background("C:\background0.gmbck") = -1
{
show_message("error")
exit
}
background_get_texture("background0")


how can i replace and use backgrounds from files. When I do it with my script, it says

" Trying to get texture from non-existing background. "

how can i fix it?

Hey there

If you know visual basic NET language you maybe know mid(string, start, length) command. How can i use this command in GML?

if you dont know visual basic i will explain how it works

mid(argument0,argument1,argument2)

argument0 = source, string
argument1 = start point
argument2 = length

mid("hello",1,2) = "he"

mid("hey_there",3,5) = "y_the"

thanks for helping.
