In this new setup we need three input fields (2 choice selectors in prefs, and 1 check button in graph dialog) to achieve our goals. At present we can do with 2 choice selectors, one in prefs and one in graphs dialog, leaving each the choice to "do not display | monochrome | greyscale | color", which also does what we want. I then would prefer 2 choice selectors instead of 2 choice selectors and 1 check button. In short: leave things as they are! Rob.
