I have code for a double pendulum that traces the second pendulums centre with a line by using the previous position of the pendulum. I need to add a function that when the mouse is clicked (on or not on the pendulum, it doesnt matter), the pendulum can be dragged around the screen within the boundaries of the pendulum, im not sure if mouse dragged() would work or if i should use a class for the pendulum to make it easier
