There are other HMIs which use systems similar to how Geo SCADA allows database referencing with animations on mimic components. While reviewing a legacy system prior to a conversion to Geo SCADA, it was noted that while their system also utilized global references for colors, it also displayed the resulting color at the other end of the reference.
We are trying to implement as many global color references as possible, to minimize change time for when users inevitably wish to change them. As such, when colors start being integrated into flowcharts, it becomes hard to see the flow (particularly if the reference is too long for the 'flowchart' diagram). It would be really convenient if the references to a CCustomColour object reflected that color in the flowchart boxes, like the RGB() expressions do.
