The area colors on the plan and in the schedule don't match. 

 

Am I doing something wrong?

 

Thanks, in advance.

I've not used the schedule so I can't comment on that but on my end the color of the buttons to choose an area to draw and the color the shows up on the floor plan don't match...has been there since 2020 and tech thought I was crazy when I asked why

Not only that, but the colour selection when you actually draw the area is different again.

Here's what I'm talking about...this has been going on since at least v2020.  Area 12 should be red according to icons when you draw it.  If I want red, I have to pick area 13.  Its always the color next to it that you get so if I were to draw area one, I'm going to get green instead of blue.  Not that it matters...but shouldn't it match?

The area colours are set up in the finishing options, and DO show in the colour you set them up (but editing the colour when you draw them doesn't do anything) ... but they don't show correctly in the schedule.

It is a known issue. I reported it to Tech Support last year.
