I am assuming that your use of all_palette() is giving you the proper
palette for the bitmaps you are using.

    Your cursor changed from its normal WHITE? to BLUE because you changed
That particular palette entry that was WHITE to BLUE.  You need to find
white somewhere in your palette and swap the WHITE and BLUE.  This is
called palette remapping.  Unfortunately if you do this you must go
through all the bitmaps that use the WHITE and BLUE and swap them also.

Example:
   + = WHITE
   - = BLUE
   $ = RED -- only use to allow another color.

Bitmap might look like this.


    Good Luck.
