First time running a program the graphs have a different background

Hi

Sometimes I experience that graphs have a grey background the first time I run a program when starting EViews. The second time I run the same program, the formatting of the graphs changes, see the two pictures below. What is causing this?

It looks as though your graph defaults are changing. I cannot explain why they are changing in between runs unless your program is changing them.

Would it be possible for you to send me (jason@eviews.com) your program?

Secondly, try restarting EViews, select Options->Graphics defaults, and then choose Graph Elements->Lines and Symbols. Do the colors for line #1 and #2 match the first graph or the second graph?
