I found the tutorial with the bicycle class examples. It is not in Greenfoot, so you probably did not review it. It is actually in the Java site. The home page of the tutorials is here There is an abundant supply of information linked to this page; however, the second sub-title on the left in red is 'Trails Covering the Basics', and the second item listed under that is 'Learning the Java Language'. Click on that and you will be on your way.

Greenfoot Update Suggestion

Last reply by sp33dy, over 12 years ago:

Yep, I was aware of that problem ticket (as I encountered it when I first tried scaling). I also agree that using scale on the image works. However, with a fresh class of school kids, it's easier to get them to use scale on the Actor and it works it all out, rather than having to understand getting the image, scaling it and then having to do some recalculations in the Actor. For now, I am going to give them my subclass of Actor and then getting them to subclass that. Not really idea. As I say, the kids first wishes are: to Place an Actor, make it turn, make it move, make it scale and then loo

Compressing sound files within scenario?

Last reply by tkiesel, over 12 years ago:

Converting the track from mono to stereo can save you lots of space (if your original was a full stereo mp3) Alternately, if you still want the stereo separation, re-encode it in Joint Stereo. That can save some space. (You save on audio information that is identical between L and R.. usually drum tracks, bass, vocals)

Yep, I hear you Duta. I was just interested in the comparison. I've often been impressed with how fast some of the standard libraries are. In fact, I often wonder whether they are using special 'hidden' tricks.. :)
