maya 8.5: color set editor bug?

rooster

been editing some colour sets in the ol color set editor, and when I hit modify the colours go darker. each time I click modify they get darker..

I tried it on a cube, applied white then painted some colours, and yep it gets darker when I hit modify- its not a lighting issue I turned lights off.

any ideas? is it a bug or something I'm not getting

Yep ,I meet this bug in maya2011 too,I studied for a while,it just powered the brightness in the vertex color , that why it goes daker in the shadow,but sorry for no workaround right now.

hey, its me from 2007 asking a maya question

you can solve this by clicking the small x on the left part of the intensity scale graph, and it should pop back to original colours. I've no idea why the default is set to change the colour intensity..
