Background color bug (?)

f.e's icon

No matter what i do, setting background color to white using the patcher inspector, or using a [bgcolor 256 256 256], it always disappear. When i reopen Live and relaunch my device, it goes grey again...

f.e

Max 5.1.1 / Live 8.1.1 / XP

No, not stupid.

As you can change Live's color theme, max for live device are designed to adapt themself to these themes.
To overdrive the colors I use a [pattr] object hoocked to a [swatch] to recall.
BTW, you can ask via the live APi wich colors are used
