In this series of videos, which are aimed at those who have never coded in PowerBasic before, I cover one element of the language or programming - today we're adding a hexagonal button to our Graphics window using a mask.

This is a follow-up to youtu.be/C373l_kTz94

00:00 - Introduction
01:30 - Creating a Bitmap and Mask
03:04 - Preparing the code
05:24 - Rendering the new Bitmap
09:50 - Adding to the event handler
14:22 - Testing
14:58 - Summary

I don't work for, nor am I paid or sponsored by, the owners of PowerBASIC or any company mentioned in these videos , I'm just a fan of their products.
