Where are the track colors in latest version of Platinum?

Am I able to have tracks displayed in FULL color (meaning the whole track)?  Right now when I assign a color to a track, only the clips are colored and a thin bar next to the track number.  Before (X3) in both track & console view the whole track was in color.  I've tried searching different options to do this, but to no avail.  Can it be done?

    Switch back to the old "Mercury" theme

    The new Tungsten theme doesn't show the entire tracks color, it only shows the WAI as the selected color. To revert to showing the full track color you have to switch back to the Mercury theme again.
     
    Check out the eZine for each update.

    Or if you're already on the Mercury theme (which is the same theme as X1-X3), go to Preferences > Customization > Colors and tick the "Show Strip Colors (Mercury theme only)" box.
