Hi,

This is a follow-up to the post on a bug in the chart value coloring: https://www.sierrachart.com/SupportBoard.php?ThreadID=74333#SupportBoard. I understand that I should not follow-up posts in a separate Support Request according to rule #8 in your How to Post a Message for Support, but the thread is locked and I'm unable to follow up in the same thread. Why is that thread locked? I would like to color the cross-hairs darker, but a bug in the chart value coloring prevents going below an RGB value of 30, 30, 30.

Regards,
Chris

This is definitely not a bug. It has to do with the exclusive or (XOR) drawing mode that is used. There is documentation about this but we cannot find it. We may just write fresh documentation about how this works.

Right. The color that i select in the color palette intentionally should not match the color that is painted on the chart. I should expect the color on the chart to be different than the one I select in the settings. My bad. So how do I get a cross-hair that is darker than 30,30,30?
