no, doesnt work unfortunately. i tried 62 which comes out as purple (getting better). maybe i have to define a new character using 01,01,etc?

Re: is there a way to use reverse characters in multicolor mode?
In your original code you weren't setting colors of your replacement screen locations at all:
Line 156 should contain a POKE X + C,0, etc., if you want those set to black.
And 62 is the screen code for >, if that's still your block.
Code: Select all
155 pokex, 1 : pokex + c, 10 : pokex + 1, 2: pokex + c + 1, 10
156 fort = 1to80 : next : pokex, 32 : pokex+ 1, 32
And 62 is the screen code for >, if that's still your block.

I don't understand why you redefine > as a block when 160 is a reversed space already, unless this does not display in multi-colour mode.
I will take a look if you repost your corrected code.
