EDIT: Somehow the entire problem vanishes once I replace PlotOn with PxlChg. I don't know how, but it works.
I have a problem with the PxlTest command in an IF statement. I basically want a dot to move around the screen without running into any pixels that are on. But for some reason the dot will move regardless of whether or not there is a dot in the way. I used a different program to check it by breaking the program when the dot is next to a pixel in the on state, and it says it is on, no matter how i formulate it (PxlTest(B,A), PxlTest(B,A)=0, PxlTest(B,A)=/=1, etc) it will definitely say the pixel is on. But the IF-statement will simply ignore whatever state the pixel is in. I'll post the code for the IF-statement when the down button is pressed.
If Getkey=28 And PxlTest(64-B+1)=0
(the 64 is because I use PlotOn to place the pixel, making the Y-coordinate (the B variable in this case) inverted. Because the graph screen is 64 high this makes sure the coordinates are correct)
Then A->D:B->E:B+1->B
(D and E just remove the old dot image when it has moved)
IfEnd
If you think it's the inversion making it go wrong it isn't; as I said before I tested it by continuously using PxlChg on the pixel that should be tested to make sure the right pixel is tested. Can anybody help me?

You need an X coordinate in PxlTest, it takes two arguments
Also, it PlotOn a command that doesn't really turn on the pixels (does pxl-Test recognize them?)

Im not sure, if I understand you correctly (okay, well I'm pretty sure I don't), but I think the problem rises from the difference between the pxl-commands and the plot-commands. The plot-command use the settings of the ViewWindow, so normaly something like x-axis from -6.3 to 6.3 an y-axis from -3.1 to 3.1, while pxl uses another coordinate system, top-left corner is (1,1) with y-axis turned down and x-axis turning right. The bottom right corner is on the legacy calcs (63,127) (note that first y and then x) and the prizm something different.
So a good approach to this problem is using a viewWindow, which makes converting to the pxl-coordinates relatively easy (ViewWindow 1,127,1,1,63,1), so PlotOn x,y is equivalent to Pxl-On 64-y,x or something similar. Also note that the plot commands override the X and Y variables.
(This is, because the "Plot "-Command without parameters can be used as an screeninput, it gives a cursor and retrieves the coordinates of the given point in X and Y. But PlotOn 13, 37 overrides these too).
I hope clearing the difference between these two help you sort out your problem.
