Track colour bug introduced with Lexington, can someone check?
Steps to reproduce:-
1. Click on a track to select it.
2. Press 'I' to open the Inspector.
3. Change the background colour.
What should happen: when you click on a colour in the pallet the background colour rectangle changes to that colour.
What now happens: it doesn't change, you have to click somewhere else in the Inspector to make it happen.
Odd that something like this that's worked since, well, forever, has been knocked out of kilter.
I'll report it if someone can confirm, thanks.

I just tried it, but when I click on the track bar to bring up the color palette and mouse over the different colors, the gray background in the ProChannel changes. If I click on a color in the palette, the color "sticks" for both the track and ProChannel.
I tried this on an older project, then thought maybe it only happened with a new project created under Lexington, but it worked there too. Not sure what would cause your issue.

I don't follow Craig, I'm in Clip View in the Inspector where you can't see Clip View and ProChannel view at the same time? I think we're in different places. Other: - I get this on a new project also. - I was working on a project this morning where all was as it has been for years, I thought I'd quickly update to Lexington, closed Sonar, ran the updater, reloaded Sonar and the same project, and bingo, this is now happening!

Skyline, I can reproduce this behavior in Lexington. I did not rollback to a previous Platinum version, but verified that X3 did work as expected. To clarify the steps, this behavior occurs when you are using the "Background" field of the Clip tab of the Inspector to change a clip color. The "Background" field does not update the color patch until you click somewhere else in the application. EDIT: Just wanted to add that this affects the "Foreground" field also. -- Ron

Ah, okay. When you referenced "track" and "background color" I thought you meant the background for the track, i.e., the track color, and the rectangle was the gray rectangle in the ProChannel. After reading SquireBum's clarification, I was able to reproduce what you described.

I just tried this as requested and everything works fine... I can change colors in the track side bar and all is changed, including prochannel. I can change colors in the "track" part of the inspector, under the Automation section... ie, the "colors" section and it works fine.
this is a new project I did late last night with Lexington.
what am I missing?

ahhhhh... thanks Squire... I see... it's the clip coloring section... yep! funny, I consider this bug to be a little xmas present for me... I never changed the background clip colors before! just used the data colorations that come from the track colors...

My problem is changing color in the clips inspector. It behaves as described above by SquireBum.
"To clarify the steps, this behavior occurs when you are using the "Background" field of the Clip tab of the Inspector to change a clip color. The "Background" field does not update the color patch until you click somewhere else in the application."

I change foreground and background colours on every project track's clip(s), so I hit this bug as soon as I'd updated to Lexington.
I always use standard colours in every project so I can instantly identify each track:
- Drums and percussion: red background, white foreground
- Bass: brown, yellow
- Keys: royal blue, white
- Strings: light green, purple
- more...

Good tip. What's the "more"?

Thanks Craig, my other standard colours I always use:
- Synths: Purple background, yellow foreground
- Brass: yellow, dark blue
- Guitars, rhythm: light pinks, dark purple
- Guitars, lead: bright pinks, dark purple
- Vocals: grey, purple
These are the colours that these instruments suggest to me!
