When the DISP bit is 0, specify the color for all standard display areas. However, after turning on the power or resetting, if this bit is set to 1 without setting the DISP bit to 1, the back screen will not be displayed correctly. When the back screen is set so that it can be specified for each line, the color displayed in the border area is the same color as the bottom line of the setting display area.
