Category Color Bar

[zematima]

Hello:
I have a category named Dogs.Under that category the name (Inka) of one of my dogs.The text for Dogs is blue (#00C0FF) and the foreground is grey (#333333)
The text for Inka is green and the foreground is grey.
On the help file I see that the example in the category color bar has 3 colors.
I should have two (the blue one and then the green one).
But my color bar is almost black.
What shall i do to see both colors?
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure that I understand your post.
The colors in the color bar are derived from the category background color, or the text color, if there is no background color. Each segment represents one category. See also the IMatch help for more info.

Hi Mario:
I understand that the color bar depends of the color of the background or text color of the category.
I tried with the background color and now it works (don´t know what I was doing yesterday...)
But now I have a quastion:
How can I use the text color instead of the background color?
For instance I have for Name A these settings;
Text Color = #00C0FF
Background color = #333333
For Name B these settings:
Text Color = #FF0000
Background color = #A0FFFF
Now in the color bar when I have dog A and dog B in a picture, I have the bar with two colors:
The color #333333 and the color #A0FFFF
How can I tell IMatch to use the text color instead of the background color?
Thanks in advance.

You can't. It always favors the background color. If there is one, it will be used.

OK.
Thanks.

I would still like to have my feature request whereby the background color would include text or something showing the text color.
