Problem with LabVIEW color options?

I've tried to set the front panel and menu colors to the predefined system color 'Panel & Object' in Tools > Options > Colors dialog. When LabVIEW is restarted the front panel and menu is black rather than the expected grey!
I use LabVIEW 6.1 on Windows NT.
I guess that this is a bug. Is there a fix or work-around?
Selecting the color from the palette works fine, but will not make the vi adapt to system colors.
Kind regards / Med venlig hilsen

I think that there is a workaround that will work for the PC and the Mac, but not on XWindows. You just go into your ini file and find the place where the front panel (or whatever) color is set. In your case I think it will be set to 000016. Change this and set it to 01000016. You can do this with any symbolic color that you like and it should work.

Good Luck.
