I like to give my nodegroups colors so that I can seperate their functions. <br><br>But when I link or append that nodegroup to a different file the color gets lost (I mean the color that gets added when you check the checkbox in in the N menu in the Item panel). <br><br>Is this normal?

*@Anže Orehek* The color of a node is an exclusively visual thing. So yes, it is normal, that is how it works. You can even color different instances of a nodegroup differently.
