Subject: Phoebus: text color based on alarm severity

I have added the preferences below in my settings.ini file.  I expected the text color to change based on alarm sevr but it just stays the same (the color selected for the text update object) .  

excerpt from preferences listing:
# Color for text and the background for 'OK' alarm severity (R,G,B or R,G,B,A values in range 0..255)
ok_severity_text_color=0,255,0
ok_severity_background_color=255,255,255

# Color for text and the background for 'MINOR' alarm severity
minor_severity_text_color=255,128,0 


Regards,
-ps
