Hello Again,

i was programming som code when i find out, that my ink Command somehow doesn't work.

If i try some code like this one:

INK RGB(255,255,0),RGB(0,0,255)
PRINT "YELLOW IN BLUE"
WAIT KEY

Then i get the yellow Text, but the Background stays still Black. So what i am doing wrong, or is it just my DarkBasic Pro which is faulty?

Thanks for help

Text uses a transparent background by default. You can enable the background colour by using the SET TEXT OPAQUE command.

Sorry, my fault. this was not what i meant. I was yesterday a little bit tired, so i copied the wrong Code-Snippet.

I try again:
What i wanna do, is to clear the Background in another Background-Color

something like that

do

background = RGB(Rnd(255),Rnd(255),Rnd(255))
ink 0, background
CLS
Wait 30

Loop

it would look like

Backdrop ON
Color Backdrop RGB(Some Color)

Sorry for the confusion i caused earlier. It would be great, if you have also an answer for that.

Thanks!
