Hello everyone, hope you are well and safe.

I used to color a mesh in a Visual Studio node like this: `myMesh.Value.VertexColors.CreateMonotoneMesh(clr);` The mesh color was consistent across the Shade and Arctic display modes in Rhino 6. Nevertheless in Rhino 7, (for the same code) I have different graphic results in relation with the display mode.  
Please have look the image below.  
Left: Shade mode, Right: Arctic mode:

I think I’m missing something new in the way to display colours in Grasshopper. Any clue ill be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance  
Carlos.

If you test this snipped in R6 and R7 in arctic mode you will see different results.

@DavidEranen did we change how we pay attention to vertex colors in arctic mode in V7?
