Dear Support,

After updating to pre-release version 2905, I noticed an issue with chart background colors related to the scales:

After opening existing chartbooks or creating a new chart, both the Price Scale and Time Scale background colors appear black.
This happens even though the charts were previously saved with non-black scale backgrounds.
My Global Settings defaults are configured to use gray backgrounds, not black.

After updating further to version 2906, the Price Scale background color is now displayed correctly again.
However, the Time Scale background is still black.

This appears to affect both existing chartbooks and newly opened charts.

Can you please check?
Thank you.
