Because my last permutation was not up to standards I have to wait till friday until I can show Mr. Späth a few new permutations. Those will then be used to make this animated permutations. So instead I created a simple permutation with crosses because I havent worked with them before. The hard part about this permutation was to define a mouse position that worked. Especially making sure that the negative x and y values where changed to a value that the program could work with. Defining the degrees is something I am still having problems with. As I want the pointer to follow the mouse. The easy way to solve that would be to draw the arrow at another point. But I would rather solve it by changing the degree value.
