Chris and I noticed the colorbar preference doesn't seem to stick between sessions. Actually going back into the options node it seems to reset, so maybe that's a clue.

    1. [menubar]->Edit->Options
    2. set colortable to "aj4co_rainbow", apply
    3. [menubar]->Options->Save Options
    4. vap+inline:randn(25,25)-distance(25,25,100,100,5,5)
    5. new window
    6. vap+inline:randn(25,25)-distance(25,25,100,100,5,5)
    7. note colortable is not aj4co_rainbow
    8. [menubar]->Edit->Options
    9. note options doesn't have aj4co_rainbow selected.

    If you manually edit ~/autoplot_data/config/options.properties, it will use the value.

    I must have made a mistake somewhere during that sequence, because it definately works after the new window is created. I think I'll make it so that all colorbars are changed, so that the feedback is improved. It's very confusing when the first window has a SpectrogramRenderer with the old colortable.

    This is fixed. Also I reset all the colorbars so there is clear feedback.
