Hi Brian,
I must be dense, I don’t see a ‘use this colour’ box anywhere that I can check. All I see is a ‘use this labels font’ box.
I am in Settings>Colours>Set The Data Colour.
I can set the data colour to, for instance, yellow. But when I shut down WD and start it up again, most of the data values will have changed to black, with one or two being red.
