Tip: Although we have been using a limited number of commands, you have likely noticed that there are many more available. Many are self-explanatory in what they do, but to get a little more information on any command you can hover the mouse over it for a second or two, which activates a popup description.

So far we have limited ourselves to tracing red lines with the robot, but there are many other drawing options available by clicking the "Drawing" tab (two tabs up from the Functions tab), as shown. (Scroll down to see shapes available.) Using the pre-placed code, experiment with drawing rectangles of different sizes, colors, and positions by changing the parameter values. The x and y parameters in the rectangle block specify the location of the bottom left corner of the rectangle. To change the color using the "stroke color" code block, click on the color that's shown and choose another from the popup menu. |
