DRAWING BLOCKS

In VEXcode VR, drawing blocks are used to create and control shapes on the virtual playground.
By combining movement and control blocks, you can program the robot to draw lines, shapes and
patterns. These blocks allow for precise control over the robot’s position, enabling creative designs and
graphical representations.
The drawing blocks are given below:

Blocks Description
This block controls the pen's position, usually in relation
move pen down to the robot's movement. The pen can be either up (not
drawing) or down (drawing).

This block sets the pen colour to a selected value, enabling

options like black, red, green and blue.

This block also sets the pen's colour, with added functionality

set pen to width thin to increase or decrease the thickness of the lines the robot
draws.

This block fills a region or shape that the robot has drawn
fill area with color
with a chosen colour.
