Hello folks, bit stumped on this...

Using SSD1306 oled with Picomite, have been able to use something like

   LINE x1, y1, x2, y2,  , bg

to get a line drawn on the oled  in the background color.

However I like using OPTION EXPLICIT/OPTION DEFAULT NONE  but that makes the above code crash out saying bg is not declared. Any help appreciated!

Hi apalert

"bg" is not a keyword, but a variable

You must
DIM bg=RGB(BLACK)


Or the color you want to use
