Breakout, the paddle object wont display

Question

Vulpes I uploaded it on the website, the file called breakout, I made a paddle class and the object wont display!
I am not sure why, could you take a look?
Also any tips in the design of that class are welcome. But for all I know , that class should only move paddle left and right and that's about it, and bounce ball back.

For anyone else who wants to take a look at it, here is the link

The problem is that neither your Paint or KeyDown events are wired up to the handlers and so nothing happens when the events are fired. This is probably because you haven't added the eventhandlers from the Properties Box (by double-clicking them) which automatically adds a skeleton handler and wires it up in the InitializeComponent method. Anyway you can still do it manually: public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); this.Paint += new PaintEventHandler(Form1_Paint); this.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(Form1_KeyDown); paddle = new Paddle(new Point(116, 250)); timer = new Timer(); timer.Interval = 100; timer.Tick += new EventHandler(timer_Tick); timer.Start(); } Other than that, I thought the class looked like it should do what it's supposed to do. There's a slight bug though - the first time you press left, the paddle moves right and vice versa. See if you can figure that one out.
