Yes, thanks for catching that.

question
Hi,
Title color used to match the indicator but it
changed a couple of releases back, I think when TJ introduced Drag and Drop
along with rotating color cycle for dropped indicators.
Using SelectedValue( maDiff ) to set the color
would result in a whole range of colors, since the value of maDiff could be
just about anything including negative number or decimal number. I think you
meant to use SelectedValue( colorMaDiff )?

question
Thanks, Graham. Seems a bit strange to need
EncodeColor() when the color variable is specified in Plot(). Is this
the way previous versions worked?
In any case, when I put your fix into a
slightly different formula instead of getting only the two colors
specified in IIF() a whole range of colors appears, depending on the
selected bar. Below are two screen shots showing two different
unspecified colors for the "MA Difference" name for two different
bars. The plot of maDiff (red and bright green dots) displays the
right colors. However, the color of the name changes through about 8
different colors depending on the bar selected. The screen shots below
show the result for two different bars. Also, note that a number
(color number?) appears in front of the name for some colors but not others
(aqua has number but not red). I have never seen a color number
displayed before. The code below is based on the previous one
and produces this effect.
Any idea what is going on and how to get around
this? It seems to me unless there is a setting that affects this
behavior, this might be one for support.
---------------------------------------------
maDiff = MA(C, 50)
- MA(C,
200);
colorMaDiff = IIf(maDiff <= 0, colorRed, colorBrightGreen);
Plot (maDiff, EncodeColor(SelectedValue(maDiff)) + " MA
Difference", colorMaDiff,
styleOwnScale|styleDots);
Plot ( C, "",
colorWhite, styleBar);
------------------------------------------------

this will change the name of the plot in title, but not the
value
Plot (diffMa, EncodeColor(SelectedValue(colorDiffMa))+"diffMa", colorDiffMa, styleLine);

I am using version 4.74.6 and have run across
something that I have not seen before and that I assume is not a
bug.
Using the simple code below, the plot
correctly displays the right color depending on the value of the
variable diffMa. However, the name in Plot() is a constant color
(lime) instead of the color of the plot which is defined in
IIF(). (see attached screen shot). If IIF() is replaced by a
color ( e.g, colorRed), the name correctly assumes this color. The
problem occurs only when IIF() is used. Lime is the up color for
candlesticks, but changing this color does not change the color of name
on the chart.
Are there new settings for controlling the
color of name? Any ideas?

MA1 = MA(C, 200);
MA2 = MA(C, 50);
diffMa = MA1 - MA2;
colorDiffMa = IIf(diffMa <= 0, colorRed, colorWhite);
Plot (diffMa, "diffMa", colorDiffMa,
styleLine);
