Figure B Screen shot of the paint program

Function:

Four textfield with X-axis, Y-axis, weight and height of the blue box. Whenever a user click the "Submit" button, the blue box at the right will change to its position and also change the size depend on the value the user entered. And also a "Reset" button to reset the value of the textfield.

At the right screen, as we can see the position and the size's data of the blue box. In the center of the right screen, we can see the message shown with bright text, but it will fade to invisible, in animation slide. Whenever the user's mouse move out move in it will show the messages...

And also the user capable of drag the blue box and the data at the top will change automatically.
