Unable to change marker colors
 
Hi,

For some I'm unable to change the marker colors from the default color that is allocated to them when they are created. I have 'Always Display Marker Colors' checked in preferences, I open the color palette and select markers from the drop down menu, select a marker but no color highlights like if I were coloring a clip and I cannot select a color.

It works fine with tracks, clips & groups.

What is the issue, is it a bug, does anybody else get this?

I'm using PT 12.6 on OSX Yosemite 10.10.5

Hi John,

Thanks for feedback, I have 'Always Display Marker Colors' already checked in preferences and still cannot change the marker colors.

it must be a 12.6 bug

Thanks again for your help John, it's definitely a bug. I get varying results with double clicking between 2 markers where it changes both marker colors.
