View not moving with sprite for some reason

Not sure what I missed but whatever it is it has to be so simple that it is laughing at me from some dark hole in the universe. >.>

No clue what I'm missing.  Been trying to get the view to move with the sprite in question but this is my latest attempt at it and it isn't working. >.>

[zsbzsb]

window.SetView(window.GetView());

And the purpose of setting the view to the exact same current view is what?

[StormWingDelta]

window.SetView(window.GetView());

And the purpose of setting the view to the exact same current view is what?

lol forgot to remove that line.  Still doesn't work though.  >.>

[zsbzsb]

You removed and replaced with what?

[StormWingDelta]

Nothing right now since I don't know what I'm missing to make the view move with the sprite. 

Here's what my while loop looks like now.

while (window.IsOpen())
            {
               
               
                window.DispatchEvents();

                movingspriteplayer.MoveSprite(0,-0.25f);

                movingview.Move(new Vector2f(movingspriteplayer.Origin.X, movingspriteplayer.Origin.Y));//movingspriteplayer.Origin
                //movingview.Center = movingspriteplayer.Position;
                //window.SetView(window.GetView());
                extext.DisplayedString = "" + movingspriteplayer.Position.ToString();
                window.Clear();
                window.Draw(exsprite);
                window.Draw(movingspriteplayer);
                window.Draw(extext);
                //window.Draw(extext2);
                //window.Draw(extext3);


                window.Display();
            }

hmm just noticed something.  When I grab the view's coords it shows that it is moving but the area being seen by the screen isn't changing.   

[zsbzsb]

Why don't people just read the tutorials....

And yes it is in red in the tutorial

When you call setView, the render-target keeps a copy of the view, not a pointer to the original one. So whenever you update your view, you need to call setView again to apply the modifications.
Don't be afraid to copy views or to create them on the fly, they are lightweight objects (they just hold a few floats).

Guess it would help if I fully read that.  Was looking through that and forgot to read that.  >.>
