Hi everybody,

ther is a detail that i can't understand it,

here is the code for drawing rectangle in the first image captured from cam. it work very fine, BUT i can't understand one thing :

in the main part, and precisely in the while loop, it is not supposed that if i don't use anymore the mouse, the temp image will be the same as original image after one loop at less ?

Untill now, all rectangles that i drawed still showen !!

Thank you for your comment;
