The size(); function being wierd #298
Description
Activity
What happens if you remove all of the contents within draw()? I suspect the issue is later in your code.
If I remove everything from draw(), the same error occurs.
So, to confirm, you see this error if you run this code?
void setup() { size(1000, 800); background(200, 200, 200); frameRate(60); } void draw() { }This is on 3.0b5. What OS?
Reacted by Gerardo Marx Chávez-CamposIn some cases, size must be called in 'settings()' https://processing.org/reference/settings_.html
Settings is used for size whenever you are using variables in size() (which you shouldn't anyway) and when you are using another IDE. I THINK this could also be related to a bug regarding size parameters that are larger than the screen size? processing/processing#3401

on Jun 19, 2017 The settings( ) option was the best way to solve the problem, thanks.
I just upgraded my processing to the latest version(3.0b5), and when I try to run a sketch that used to work, I get an error message:
"size() cannot be used here, see https://processing.org/reference/size_.html"
The example in the link shows the size() in the setup(), like what I have.
Here is my setup() code:
void setup()
{
size(1000, 800);
background(200, 200, 200);
frameRate(60);
}
I tried to use fullScreen() instead of size, but it also said that it "cannot be used here"
