Why? Code: PANEL* targets = { layer = 5; button = 0,0, cg_released_pcx, cg_normal_pcx, cg_over_pcx,chose_target,NULL,NULL; digits = 2,2, "target: first", "Arial#24", 0, 0; } void chose_target() { pan_setdigits(targets,1,2,2, "target: last", "Arial#24", 0, 0); } Thanks for reading, thinking, answering
