line color changes
      #784583 - 02/05/07 07:30 AM

Anyone have this problem? I create lines of various colors in GE, save the layer as a KML file, then put the data on my server for public viewing through Google Maps. When viewed with Google Maps, the line colors become a translucent blue, rendering the map useless. That same KML file looks correct, however, when viewed in GE

GE 4.0.2736, MacBook, OS 10.4.8, 2 GHz Intel Core Duo

The colors I choose are off the "Apple" palette. I tried changing the colors to those on the "web safe colors" pallette, but the results are the same. This has started only in the past week, since "upgrading" from GE 4.0.1694 beta to GE 4.0.2736 ...

I'm having the same problem. I create paths in GE 4 with colors, then upload the kmz file to my server to view in Google Maps and the lines are all transparent blue. Here is a sample kml file with a red line that becomes transparent blue in Google Maps. I merely created a new folder, added a path, modified the color to red (with default 100% opacity, 1.0 width):

As a follow-up to my previous post, my video driver is:

Video Driver: Intel (00006.00014.00010.04396)

Any help on the problem is appreciated.
