Re: [pygame] Changing screen coord system

["Edward Povazan" <epovazan@telus.net>]

Thanks for the archive link.
(pos[0],screensize[1]-pos[1]) is fine except that my bitmaps that were on
the top of the screen get drawn off the screen. Since it is a tiled game, I
can add tile_height to it, but then when I draw lines, they start in the
wrong place. Etc etc. I am used to 0,0 at bottom, left, so was just
wondering if there was a built in coord system that I could set up like I've
done with other APIs
