On the 'Compare Peers' page, legend/graph colors should be consistent from one tab to the next
When moving from one tab to the next on the comparing peers screen it would be a lot easier if the graphs for each of the peers was always the same color.
This item has been completed in the CoreSSG and SSGPlus.

Another vote to have the colors remain consistent when changing tabs on the compare peers feature.

In the "Compare Peers" window, colors that represent each company CHANGE as the tabs (like Sales, EPS, PTP, %PTP, etc.) are chosen. Am I missing some important insight as to why this is beneficial? If not, PLEASE KEEP THE SAME COLOR ASSOCIATED WITH THE SAME COMPANY on ALL TABS. Just a thought, PLEASE!

This is not an improvement this feature is broken, Too much meeting time is wasted explaining to the uninitiated that colours are randomly assigned not consistent through the screens. Why vote on fix .what is the design feature of randomly assigning different colours for each screen?

It seems to me that different programmers developed each of the sections and each independently chose their own color scheme. Otherwise, I find no other reasonable explanation for what seems like random color choices that don't match. Regardless, it's confusing and does not help us as we work through our SSGs, let alone when we are trying to explain them to other members.

This is an important and fundamental issue in Data Visualization. Color is used for identification, and if the color changes from screen to screen, that important mapping is lost. Every company should have a color, and those colors should be the same from screen to screen.

We find it very confusing at our meetings to go from screen to screen and have the colors change. Would love to have consistency of color from one screen to another.

Changing colors has been extremely confusing for our members. It's as if different cmmittees (if you will) have each independently put together their pieces without collaborating with each other.
Consistency should be an easy thing to do and it will make life so much easier for us. When we review an SSG, the color changes tend to make it difficult and time-consuming to explain what is what An easy fix, I would think, and one that your membership would be appreciative of. -

100% agree this would improve readability/usability

If you will keep the colors the same as we step through the graphs when comparing the peers it will be less confusing to relate the companies to one another.

I would add that the company under evaluation should be a very visible color...ie black or another dark color

Would really be helpful to follow the colors.
