[Therion] Bug - select map -colour

[Bruce Mutton]

I have managed to get some effect from 'select map -colour', but not
entirely the desired effects.  Just documenting the behaviour here.

There are no lookups defined in this project.

 

select AblutionInceptionPlanMap -colour [0 0 100] #blue

select QuackeryPlanMap                -color [0 100 0] #green

select SouthBoundPlanMap           -color [100 0 0] #red

 

The above selects have no effect, the maps are all uncoloured, unless.

I add, 'colour map-fg map', inside a layout, then I get all maps coloured
with the last colour specified (red).

 



I wasn't expecting 'colour map-fg map' to have an effect, as I thought the
'select map -colour' would override layout specifications, or at least have
the option to override (to make it both 'easy' and allow combining other
colour palettes (such as map-fg explo-date) with particular maps highlighted
and overriding the palette).

 

If I change the order of selects, I find the last colour selected is the one
that colours all the maps.  Eg, making green last colours all maps green.



If I make all of the spelling consistent, ie color, or colour, there is no
effect.

 

If I add other select map statements with no -colour option, then, again,
all maps are coloured with the last colour selected.

 

If I remove the -colour option from select statements, and use only 'colour
map-fg map', then I get appropriate automatically coloured maps, ie
