Change color of expanded dgml node

In a dgml file, an expanded Node can have the Background color set which changes the background of the border and title bar. The Foreground color sets the color of the title text.
The body currently seems to be filled with a color that depends on the current color theme selected in the Visual Studio options dialog. This means some people end up with white backgrounds and some black. This causes issues, especially when trying to export as xps to print the diagram. A massive block of black ink is a waste of ink!
How can the color of the body of the expanded Node be specified?
No it cannot. It was a "UI design" decision. Filling the entire group background with color conflicted too much with the VS color scheme. For example, a dark theme editor showing tons of White looks ugly, and a light themed VS showing tons of dark colors also looks ugly...sorry.

Transparent Circle inside a White Rectangle

I'm working on a report project and would like to avoid making a separate image for each indicator color. Ideally, I like to put a transparent circle in a white rectangle. I have Snag-It available and general Windows tools.
My plan is to put the Image in a table cell and change the color of the circle by dynamically assigning the background color of the cell. I think it would be much easier to embed this one image, rather than creating a bunch of different colored circles that all have to be embedded.
Any suggestions on how I can do this in Snag-It or Paint, or any tools that are free for commercial use that you can recommended for this?
This sounds like a good workaround to get an indicator with whatever color you want.
Paint.net is a free image editor that you could create this in. Start with a white square. Use the Ellipse Select tool to select a circle in the middle. Press the Delete key to make it transparent. Save it as a .PNG file and embed it in the report.

How do I prevent objects/text from changing color when changing layout?

I have a PowerPoint template with a number of custom layouts. The template has a custom color palette, and layouts are organized under multiple Slide Masters that each use one of the color in the palette. So layouts are the same for each Slide Master, but feature a different color. All Slide Master use the same custom color palette, which has Black set for the Dark 1 color, and White set for Light 1.
The problem I have is when I create slides from these layouts, some end up with White as the first (Dark 1) color, and Black as the second (Light 1) color on the palette, while others have it the other way around (Black then White for Dark 1 and Light 1), as I would expect. This means that if I change the layout of a slide, any object that was white becomes black, and vice-versa.
Why does that happen?
I have tried re-selecting the color palette for the problematic slides, but it didn't help. I don't know what else I can try.
Any help is very much appreciated :)
Vincent
