Clustering changes custom colors

USE CASE: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?

Not have clustering affect a user's custom colors. The resulting clustered data should have the same colors as the previously unclustered data.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE AN ISSUE (OR TRIGGER A NEW FEATURE)

Open 11.cdt (attached)
Adjust colors to be red 0, black 0.94, green 1.0 & click save
Select Cluster->Hierarchical
Select rows: "Leave unchanged"
Click continue

CURRENT BEHAVIOR

After clustering:

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

Clustering does not change custom set colors.

DEVELOPERS ONLY SECTION

SUGGESTED CHANGE (Pseudocode optional)

Probably, a default color preset and min/max are being set for the newly loaded file. If the newly loaded file is the result of a cluster operation, the color settings should be passed along.

COMMENTS

Found this while testing issue #456. I had noticed that the example I pasted in the comments of that issue had both axes clustered and the colors were adjusted to be all red, but my current 11.cdt file had only rows clustered and mostly green, so I adjusted the colors, then went to cluster only columns and the resulting display switched the colors back to green. Clustering shouldn't change the colors...
