It looks like a bug, kinda. It looks like the RpfFrameCacheHandler
gets its RpfColorTable replaced with the frame's version that it last
loaded. The frame's colortable object is created with the default
settings, so you lose the properties settings.
I'm starting to remember why the code does this - originially, a
single colortable was used across all of the frames, and that
colortable was set via the properties. This worked because the
colortable was supposed to be the same across all frames, even though
each frame contains colortable information as well. The problems
started when RPF was being created without a consistent colortable
for a product (GNC, JNC, etc) and you'd get weird colors for some
frames when you mixed and matched data created at different times.
The solution to this was to just have each frame use the colortable
it has, and I think the API made it hard to pass the numberColors
property to the RpfFrame when it's colortable object is created.
And so this is the way it's been for years, and you're the first to
mention it. :)
