White pixels are transparent

[noah]

Hi, so I made a little sprite that moves around a map, but my floor tiles have dot textures on, and they appear in the face of my character, even though I filled the face in white before converting to hexadecimal. Is there any way to change this? Or should I just remove the dots from the floor?

Thanks in advance, -noah

When using gb.drawBitmap with color set to BLACK, white pixels are indeed rendered as transparent. The work-around is to draw e.g. a white rectangle on where you want to draw your sprite first.

so I did

Code:

gb.display.setColor(white, white);
gb.display.fillRect(playerX, playerY, 10, 10);


(10 is the width/height of my sprite) before drawing the bitmap, and now they have completely disappeared!
Why is this?

thanks, noah

Hi,
I fixed the sprite disappearing by setting color back to black before drawing the bitmap but now the walls and ground show through them again. Not quite sure what to do...
