Graphics in mode 20

[Rens]

Does anyone know how to draw lines in different colors in screen 20 ?

Screen 20,24,,1
line (0,0)-(200,200),7
sleep

This doesn't work, only a black screen.

Screen 20,,,1
line (0,0)-(200,200),4
sleep

This works, but i also want to load a 24 bpp pictures

True color modes don't have indexed colors. It's blitting the line, but 7 is pretty close to black. Try the RGB macro:

line (0, 0)-(319, 199), rgb(128, 128, 255)

Also, use a 32 bit depth. It's faster, trust me, and you can still display 24bbp images.

Now i have another problem:

How to place text in color?

It seems that all the text is in white?

Screen 20,32,,1
bload "brain.bmp"
line (0, 0)-(319, 199), rgb(255, 255, 255)
Color 3 <- this doesn't work
Print "hallo"
sleep

You would use the RGB macro again. Color 3 is cyan. In RGB, rgb(0, 255, 255).

color rgb(0,255,255)
print "hallo"
sleep
