Re: troubles with paintbars... please help!

If you are talking about paint bars over painting themselves with different
colors than what you expect then, I have been there.  The key is to put the
colors on one at a time on the chart starting with smallest first then
applying the next color etc. I forget whether it is smallest first or
biggest first (windows is weird like that)  but once you get it at least
part way save it as a template then over write as you improve it.  Good luck
