Small Graph Shade Error

Post by William Grimsley »

Hi there,

I have recently changed the background colour on my graphs from grey to white. All of the big graphs have the white background colour. But, the wind direction small graph is still shaded in the grey background colour. I tried restarting Cumulus and changing the background colour from white to grey to white again. But, it still showed the background colour still showed as grey when I put the background colour of the graphs back to white.

Is this a known error? Do I need to go back to a grey colour to fix the issue?

Interestingly, ticking the 'Gradient enabled' box with start as the white colour, middle as the white colour and end as the white colour under the 'Graphs' heading in the Configuaration-Colours menu makes the background colour go from grey to white on the wind direction small graph.

Yes, I looked through your post and found that Steve had said that you can make the background have a gradient to solve the problem.
