Anyone else notice that the NOW marker color is not green (or whatever color you chose), but stays black in the latest Tungsten Theme?  A minor irritation.

Really???  Am I the only one with this bug??

I haven't noticed it to be honest. but my now time is black in both mercury and tungsten.
your running the latest version  2016.06 ?

Yes...running latest version.  And in my Preferences, Now Marker is indicated to be bright green....yet it remains black, whether transport is playing or stopped.
 
I want it green darn it!  LOL

Nope, it's green here, and always has been

This is what I'm seeing:
 
In Mercury during playback the Now Marker is a small, dark green triangle on a dark gray background (it's a little hard to distinguish the green color, actually).
 
In Tungsten, it's a larger black triangle on a lighter gray background.
 
Given the way themes use image files for graphics, I would not have expected the Now marker colors to be customizable via Colors in Preferences in any theme other than Mercury, which isn't technically a 'theme' in the same way that Tungsten is.
