I got it to work but it's slow....like really slow, plus the cursor is not inverted to match (it's a white box with the symbol in it). I was wondering is there a way to program in C that can flip the pixel state at a faster rate (my method for now just does it on pixel at a time), and a way to invert the cursor?

Note that in C, you you have access to the full screen area, so you wouldn't be limited to drawing in the Graph screen, and you could handle the cursor the way you want. I can re-test (in case it's different in newer AMS versions) and post the solution for accessing the Graph screen bitmap, but I really think you'd be much better off making a paint program in full C, instead of staying limited by TI-BASIC.

But thanks I would like to know a solution to my problem, and I already started reading the header files and planning out how to program it
