Hi Michael,
It wasnt that. It was I was setting the first object to "Default" and the script turns that black.

So default to black "looks" like all objects are black

I set a new style of "Very Light Black" to Black, and the gradient appeared. If i set First to default and something like Blue, I get Black to Blue...

Anyway, figured out how to use it pproperly. Has something to do with the default color and the "Black, not really Black" Shading vs Lines thing.......

"""""" "database order""""""""

Regarding this, is there a way to force a reorder in any way?

Hi Burr,

If you delete an object and then undo it will be at the end of the database.
