Assigned color to sliders incorrect when 2 sliders are the same color

[Robert Leach]

So I encountered a problem that is likely rare. I was debugging a data value problem (missing values assigned 0.0's) and I wanted to visualize every cell that had the value 0.0 (as opposed to missing data), so I set the black slider at 0.0 and added 2 sliders on either side of the black slider that were the same color. The result was that the color under the black slider changed to the new color and the new slider obtained the black color. I have attached screen-caps.

Is this still an issue with the new color interface? I know this used to be a bug but I haven't encountered this problem ever since the update.

I think I may have a screen recording for this. Let me look and see if I can reproduce it.

Well, I couldn't get the color slider problem to happen again, but I did encounter another problem. After adjusting the colors a bunch (adding/removing tons of sliders), I accidentally select View->Labels, and the labels dialog did not appear. I tried it a bunch of times. Unfortunately, I had stopped recording by that point.

Here's what I did with the color sliders with no error. Unfortunately, I stopped the screen recording before the next vid. In between, I simply closed the color settings dialog.

TV3 had been open for awhile before all this. I had opened multiple files: small, large, then the current small one before the problem occurred.

I'll bet this was a reset preferences issue. I will close this issue as resolved, as I could not reproduce it. If it happens again, I'll reopen.

The color dialog revamp seems to have fixed this issue.

Checked in version 20151118, issue fixed.
