Off the top of my head, you have two alternatives: 1) Change the graphics bacground colour to be colour 5 (in your example - GCOL 133) and the FILL will work correctly. 2) Use the other PLOT command, whichever one it is. One fills until a non-background colour is reached and the other fills until a certain foreground colour is reached (I think) Disclaimer: I have not used these commands in a loooooooooong time...
