white color rviz

[roboticsai]

When i run the rviz and view the markers being published it's color is not changeing from white to any other colour. Here is the screenshot i took: https://answers.ros.org/question/353188/white-color-rviz/?comment=353270#post-id-353270

Check your Message with rostopic echo /visualization_marker i assume you put in invalid colors outside [0..1]
In any other case Reopen as bug in rviz
