Description Bert Kreisel 2015-11-24 06:06:55 EST 
A duplicated series with Color=clTeeColor gets the ISeriesColor of the original series. So the original series and the duplicated series are looking the same (color). After saving to .tee file and loading this .tee file the series are no longer looking the same because the color is not stored in the .tee file and each series gets the next FreeSeriesColor.

Changing the color of a series is not expected after saving to .tee file and then loading this file. One solution could be setting the color of the duplicated series to the next FreeSeriesColor after duplicating (I would suggest this). Another possibility would be setting the color of the duplicated series to ISeriesColor.

The code below reproduce the problem: 

uses TeeExport,TeeStore,TeCanvas,TeeJPEG,TeePNG;
var Series1,Series2:TLineSeries;
procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
Series1 :=TLineSeries.Create(self);
Chart1.AddSeries(Series1);
Series1.FillSampleValues(10);
Chart1.AddSeries(CloneChartSeries(Chart1[0]));
Chart1.Axes.Left.Title.Visible := true;
Chart1.Axes.Left.Title.Text := 'Axis Left';
Chart1.Axes.Left.Title.TextAlignment := taLeftJustify;
Chart1.Axes.Left.Title.Position := tpCenter;
Chart1.Axes.Left.Texts.Position := lpBeforeTick;
SaveChartToFile(TCustomChart(Chart1),ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0))+'\ChartAxisPosition.tee');
end;
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
LoadChartfromFile(TCustomChart(Chart1),ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0))+'\ChartAxisPosition.tee');
end;

This is what was already been done, but unfortunately a bug was doing it again, changing back the new free color to the original one, so that's why the two series appear red.

The correct output (before saving to *.tee file) is first series red and second series green. Saving and loading does not change the default colors.
