How do i change the position of a turtle in python?
How do I set the startpos (topleft of my turtle square) when starting my code? Show And I don't mean that it starts from the middle and then goes to that position. I want the turtle to start there.

are simply wrong and/or didn't read your question as your user will see the turtle move into position. Unfortunately, your question isn't clear when you say, "my turtle square" as it's not clear if you mean the window, a square you've drawn, or a square you're about to draw. I'll give you my solution for starting at the top left of the window and you can adjust it to your needs:
The turtle's first appearance should be at the top left of the window. answered Feb 9, 2017 at 6:27
Python turtle, change start position:
The turtle becomes visible and starts drawing at position -200, -200 and goes to 50, 50. Here's the documentation on how you can change the turtle's state: https://docs.python.org/2/library/turtle.html#turtle-state answered Jul 3, 2015 at 13:58

This will make the entire window be 21x21 "units" and place the origin one unit from the bottom and left edges. Whatever position you command will also be in terms of these units (rather than pixels). answered Feb 9, 2017 at 3:16

Say you want to start in the top left of the square - lets call that (0, 10) for arguments sake. Now, whenever you need to specify a co-ordinate for the turtle, just translate it!

but that's not nearly as fun :( answered Feb 5, 2013 at 17:25

RautermannRautermann 1952 silver badges9 bronze badges For that you need to set the turtle coordinates depending upon your screen size for example your screen size is (400, 400) then in this case you need to set coordinates as turtle.goto(190,190) and 190 not 200 otherwise ur turtle will hide in the border. But for the animation to not appear i.e it starts from the middle and then goes to that position. You have to set tracer as 0 like this "screen.tracer(0)" then you need to update your screen every time to see the contents of your program. For that You will need a while loop. Set a variable as true and use like this: Ur code should like this after applying the changes I suggested:

At the beginning of the code, after defining the turtle, you can do:
This will make the turtle invisible.

How do you determine the position of a turtle?This method is used to find the turtle's current location (x, y), as a Vec2D-vector. This method has the Aliases: pos | position. This function does not require any argument and returns the current position of the turtle in the format (x,y) where x and y represent the 2D vector. The default value is (0.0, 0.0).
How do you align a turtle?This function is used to write text at the current turtle position.
