Lifecycle Snapshot - workbook colours all changed

Hi Guys

I migrated a workbook with Lifecycle manager - exported to a .gz file on source server, and imported on destination server.
All worked fine, except the colours all changed. Any idea why?

Regards
Chris

Are the source and destination servers the same version of PAW?
Is the book perhaps using a custom pallet that doesn't exist on the destination server?

Which colours are we talking about here: Charts, Conditional Formats etc.
There has been a change since the Carbon styling came in that leads to the selectable conditional format colours to be different than those we had previously. If you have an existing book - it will still have the old colours, but a newly created book uses the new colours. It could be that importing a book to a new server classifies it as "New" rather than "Existing" so it starts using the newer colours in conditional formatting. That is just speculation though.
