The issue has been resolved in both R12_1 and Master. However, the colour should be revised for a prevention that is Refused (salmon colour). The colour appears to be too pale and hard to read in echart. Please find attahched.
The issue is also present in R15_Beta. Can you please commit the fix to that branch when colour is revised for refused preventions?
Please check the updated color

I was asked to review this by OSCAR EMR.
My initial view of the new and changed colours within the prevention module was an improvement to determine at a glance what the results or saved data was. But within the prevention module warnings and reminders appear separate from the list, colours are in a block that make it easy to distinguish and are accompanied by a legend to describe what the colours mean. Also the prevention module is not just a singular list, recommended preventions/immunizations and are headings unlike in the eChart where it is one big list.
From the eChart it is hard to read the pale colours and to me on a busy patient I am worried the warnings will drowned out or even if the absence of a warning the difference of shade from refused and abnormal that abnormal may start being confused as warnings. Even though I believe in indicator consistency I also am concerned at where do we stop. How much colour do we allow in the eChart, what about allergies, medications, measurements etc...? Also how many of these will be allowed into the new design of OSCAR15?
I think this was a little change with a big impact and I would suggest that the portion involving the eChart be separated resubmitted as a feature change to allow the technical committee to way in. I would also suggest that the changes to:
src/main/java/oscar/oscarEncounter/pageUtil/EctDisplayPreventionAction.java
for master and 12_1 be reverted and the change for release_15_beta not be merged for now.
