Colour in Playlist/Playout

Hi,

I’m having problems getting colour to work on items.

I’ve set the colour of my Dry Idents to yellow, and “Use player colours” option is enabled under “Playlists > Playlist 1 > GUI Options”, however, the idents are not being displayed in the colour as I had hoped.

Will this only take effect, after I’ve generated a new playlist? I assumed it would take effect straight away.

I’m afraid “Use player colors” has higher priority than any item-specific color.

Oh right, so how do I get colours to appear in the playlist window above the two players?

My aim is to be able to see at a glance, where in the playlist/hour I am. So all voice tracks are in one colour, jingles/idents in another, new music in another and so on.

Think I’ve just answered my own question Torben.

It appears that possibly the playlist will need re-generating for the change to take effect.

If I drag an item in manually, it works straight away. See below:-

Thanks for your help. I do have another question regarding name of files in voice tracking, but I’ll post that later.
