Try this:
FOR a= 24 TO 0 STEP -1
PRINT a
NEXT a
I expect the output of numbers 24 to 0, but what I got is 22 to 0, so it looks like another bug. DP Pro forgets the first two loops.
There is also a problem with GET IMAGE, if the y size is not equal x size, PASTE IMAGE will produce a wrong aspect ratio.
And a suggestion: How about including a file browser, just like that one coded by Dragonfly, but accessable with less commands. The editor has a browser too...

Should be easy to fix, hope so!
I can be wrong with GET IMAGE, probaly the x size and y size must be a power of 2, or the image will be streched at PASTE IMAGE.
The second patch will be available in 2 weeks, so I hope, Lee has the timr to fix this.

And it looks loke PASTE IMAGE is loosing constantly one or two screen lines again and again. Just try vertical scrolling by copying constantly images from hidden Bitmap to active. And this is not a sync problem.

And more bugs:
Sometimes INK looses the ability to control the color of LINE (mainly short after I use PUT IMAGE), but after that, it still works fine with DOT. I´m waiting for the second patch to post more bugs

Yes, I told them about the INK & LINE problem awhile ago... Hopefully P#2 will solve these too...

I do not, posting this in the forum will be successfull too.
BTW: Next bugs found! If Background screen is bigger than the Full Screen mode, GET Image will be impossible if the values are outside the 640x480 border, even if the background bitmap is 1024x768 pixel sized, but in window desktop mode it works fine.
Not sure if this was in DB 1.13 too, but if you make a BOX where x2 is smaller than x1 or y2 is smaller than y1, notching will appear on screen. How bout internal sorting?.
I find every day a few bugs in DB Pro (Beta?)...

if x2 is smaller than x1 wouldn't that invert the box, therefore if you turn off back face culling it should re-appear?

Hmmm, possibly, but box is not a 3d command, in fact it is 2d. Face culling works only with 3d.

Okay, if Patch2 does not have a bugfix for that, I will note down all bugs and send them directly to the support team (I hope, their mailbox is BIG!).
At moment I have a lot of other problem, where the code runs smoothly in debug modus or if I insert Wait key command between the loops, but in normal execution there is notching on screen..
And the size of the code is thee times of the equivalent DB code.

Collision with polygons do not work, I compiled the same code in db and dbpro, works in v113 but not in pro, my balls just float through my polygonal collision set up ballmill.

Yes, I heard about the buggy 3D commands, this was the reason why a friend gave it up and sold his copy of DBP to me... I do more 2D stuff.
Yesterday i encountered another bug
I tried to COPY IMAGE 0,0,0,256,192,10,0,0,256,192. It Crashed as compiled code, but if I copy from other Bitmap than 0 or if I copy to Bitmap 0 it works fine.
