 Yes, thanks for catching that.

  question 
  
  
  Hi, 
    
  
  Title color used to match the indicator but it 
  changed a couple of releases back, I think when TJ introduced Drag and Drop 
  along with rotating color cycle for dropped indicators. 
    
  Using SelectedValue( maDiff ) to set the color 
  would result in a whole range of colors, since the value of maDiff could be 
  just about anything including negative number or decimal number. I think you 
  meant to use SelectedValue( colorMaDiff )?

    question 
    
  
    Thanks, Graham.  Seems a bit strange to need 
    EncodeColor() when the color variable is specified in Plot().  Is this 
    the way previous versions worked? 
      
    In any case, when I put your fix into a 
    slightly different formula instead of getting only the two colors 
    specified in IIF() a whole range of colors appears, depending on the 
    selected bar.  Below are two screen shots showing two different 
    unspecified colors for the "MA Difference" name for two different 
    bars.  The plot of maDiff (red and bright green dots) displays the 
    right colors.  However, the color of the name changes through about 8 
    different colors depending on the bar selected.  The screen shots below 
    show the result for two different bars.  Also, note that a number 
    (color number?) appears in front of the name for some colors but not others 
    (aqua has number but not red).  I have never seen a color number 
    displayed before.  The code below is based on the previous one 
    and produces this effect.  
      
    Any idea what is going on and how to get around 
    this?  It seems to me unless there is a setting that affects this 
    behavior, this might be one for support. 
      
    --------------------------------------------- 
      
    
    maDiff =  MA(C, 50) 
    - MA(C, 
    200);
    colorMaDiff =  IIf(maDiff <= 0, colorRed, colorBrightGreen);
    Plot (maDiff, EncodeColor(SelectedValue(maDiff)) + " MA 
    Difference", colorMaDiff, 
    styleOwnScale|styleDots);
    Plot ( C, "", 
    colorWhite, styleBar);

      this will change the name of the plot in title, but not the 
      value 
        
      Plot (diffMa, EncodeColor(SelectedValue(colorDiffMa))+"diffMa", colorDiffMa, styleLine);

        I am using version 4.74.6 and have run across 
        something that I have not seen before and that I assume is not a 
        bug. 
          
        Using the simple code below, the plot 
        correctly displays the right color depending on the value of the 
        variable diffMa.  However, the name in Plot() is a constant color 
        (lime) instead of the color of the plot which is defined in 
        IIF().  (see attached screen shot).  If IIF() is replaced by a 
        color ( e.g, colorRed), the name correctly assumes this color.  The 
        problem occurs only when IIF() is used.  Lime is the up color for 
        candlesticks, but changing this color does not change the color of name 
        on the chart.  
          
        Are there new settings for controlling the 
        color of name?  Any ideas?

        MA1 =  MA(C, 200); 
        MA2 =  MA(C, 50); 
        diffMa = MA1 - MA2; 
        colorDiffMa =  IIf(diffMa <= 0, colorRed, colorWhite); 
        Plot (diffMa, "diffMa", colorDiffMa, 
        styleLine);
