Flickering Hyphen under a running counter

[hinckleyj]

Hi everyone,

When you are displaying a fast running counter, there are hyphens flickering under the counter which makes it look very untidy.

Does anyone know how to prevent this without having to cause the counter to run slower?

You can test it with this:-
10 A%=1
20 PRINT TAB(1,1);A%
30 A%=A%+1
40 GOTO 20

(Apologies for the 'Goto'. It was just the quickest way to show you what I mean)

Thanks.

Hello,

That hyphen is actually the text cursor. You can make it invisible with the OFF keyword.

Code: Select all

   10 OFF
   20 A%=1
   30 PRINT TAB(1,1);A%
   40 A%=A%+1
   50 GOTO 30

Wow! As simple as that (when you know how).

Thank you Patrick.
