Color Palette Color Chips

I created some color palettes to use in direct selects but they are all showing amber color chips. The palettes themselves work and they were created with a macro that also seems to work–the macro text is "Make absolute. Enter. Select Last Record Color Palette By Type Wait for Enter". Is it possible for me to manually go in and update the color chips or do I have to re-record the color palettes? Is there another fix? Any help is much appreciated.

The color of the chip (in Eos terminology "color swatches") is determined by the color of the channel with the highest channel number with data in the respective palette.

So maybe the highest numbered channel has a color mixing system that Eos doesn't understand well enough to show. The color swatches also only use color mixing not fixed colors.

I usually have a RGB dummy channel as channel 10000 (which is my highest channel) that I use to color the color swatches of color palettes

Thanks! This is really helpful. They shouldn't have had something weird going on with the color mixing, but it's good to know a workaround.
