Moving vertex arrays?

[new_to_sfml]

Hi, I'm new to SFML and to object oriented C++ and I want to make a Tetris clone. I'm using vertex array to represent tetrominos. Is it the best way to do it?
If it is, then is there a convenient way to move them on the screen?

If you're just starting out, you're probably better off using sprites instead. That way you don't have to figure out the proper math to transform everything, but you get nice functions.

So a tetromino would be a sprite containing 4 square shapes? But how to arrange them so that they form a correct tetromino?

[eXpl0it3r]

If you just want the shape without texturing, then you could also use rectangle shapes.
You could for example draw four squares next to each other for a straight tetromino etc.

If you search the project section for Tetris, you should find quite a few examples, often with code, that might help you understand, how one could go about writing such a game.

I can draw four squares next to each other etc., but I also need the program to "see" those four squares as one entity because I think it would make it simpler to use. So I have to join them somehow in code and I'm not sure how to do it.
I don't see any method that seems helpful to do so in sf::Sprite documentation.

You can wrap them in a class and use that as your "glue" code.
