Down Eye can't detect what is drawn with the pen

I saw a couple other posts similar to this, but they were from 3 years ago. I’ve noticed that the down eye in VEXcode VR doesn’t seem to work on lines or colors that are drawn with the pen. Here’s an example I made to test.


Even though the whole surface is black, it says brightness is 100%. I’ve also used [wait until Down Eye detects red] (and blue, and green,…) That doesn’t work either.

Is this a known issue, and if so, what kind of work arounds are there?

Wrong screenshot :stuck_out_tongue:

Hello, the down eye sensor does not have the capability to recognize drawn lines. Typically, the down eye sensor does not respond to surfaces like floors. In playgrounds such as “Line Detector” and “Encoded Message,” there are invisible elements that the eye sensor is able to detect.
