Infraworks Road Style Defaulting to different colour

I've manually added a new road style with a yellow stripe for centreline as per Eric Chappell's post

 

http://ericchappell.blogspot.ca/2013/08/getting-look-you-want-in-infraworks.html

 

However, the yellow line for some reason defaults to a grey?  I have mapped it as per Eric's post but it does not seem to want to display correctly.

 

anyone else having issues like this?

Can you check that the name string that you used in the Material mapping (Yellow Stripe) exactly matches the string in the "track top surface category" column of the style?

Yes, the mapping matches the track top surface category.  I did, however, find a work around.  I found a jpg of the the colour I needed and used it as a material as opposed to using the Material Style colour.

I've found that using a texture such as the one attached will give even better results. When you think about it, we aren't looking for the color yellow or white, we are looking for asphalt in the yellow or white color. It's a subtle but important difference that will make the model look that much better.
