Element status colors not displayed in EA V16 RC

[blaisephilip]

Hello everyone,

I have another small issue to report:

Test Setup:
EA Version: V16.0.1603
An .EAPX project exists (created with V15.2) that includes application of model types (Settings-> Model Types-> General Types) and has configured colors to Status values.

After opening the project ...
- in EA V15.2, all colors are displayed correctly in the diagrams. (e.g. Requirement Diagram in SysML)

 - in EA V16.0.1603, no colors are displayed on diagrams, but under Settings -> Model Types -> General Types -> Status the values are present and so are the colors. So just the color style on placed elements in the diagrams is ignored.

Is there any workaround for this?

You might need to go ribbon > Layout > Diagram > Appearance > Show Status Colors. And also make sure you are using a theme that displays shadows.

Yes, this was the issue. Thanks for the help!
