Sigh.  No.  See my other post.  I quote from the manual page for the SWI
and reason code, OS_SpriteOp 34, you are using:

"Do not use if not in the same mode style (colours/resolution) as the
sprite."

I shall leave determining the correct reason code to use when the above
situation arises as an exercise for the reader.
