Display Mapping colors in MUX

Products

• Clarity PPM On Premise
• Clarity PPM SaaS

Issue/Introduction

While setting display mappings for an attribute in the project object, we have noticed that the color displayed in Classic PPM and MUX for the same attribute differs.

The Black and Brown display mappings set at the attribute level display correctly in Classic PPM, but not in MUX.

Is this expected?

 

Environment

Clarity 16.1.0 onwards

Cause

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines adoption

Resolution

In order to support WCAG color contrast requirements, an alternate set of new colors are displayed in MUX. Hence some colors in MUX would end up having a warmer undertone. e.g. Brown will display as Orange, Black will display as Navy, Grey will appear more Beige or Greige.
