I don't exactly know what you want, but you can always make a bouncing ball, make it bounce around the screen and set its display properties to not save background and chose vipe with a color.
That should be the easiest way <img src="/center/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

it's work but i want to control the shape of the line that the active object create after him , the idea of mine is to make a screen saver that will draw a pictures .

Ok, try this instead:

Make an active object that will be the "pencil stroke". It may only be a pixel or 2, or bigger if you want.

Then have an event to always create this object at 0.0 from the main object:
* Always
: Create "pencil stroke" at 0.0 from Active1

A smart thing can be to add these actions in the same event:
: paste "pencil stroke" to background
: destroy "pencil stroke"

Without these actions there will be too many active objects and it may slow down the program alot.

Use overlay Redux and always draw a line between the old coordinates of the pencil and the new coordinates. <img src="/center/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
It's better than pasting active objects.
