Unity 4 Font Colors Not Following HEX Codes?

Question

alt text

It seems like fonts in Unity 4 are just defaulting to the nearest 256 color (or random) instead of following the HEX code accurately.

Can anyone confirm this is a bug, or suggest a fix?

Figured out the problem. For some reason it works when we write the alphabet characters in lower case.

Unity uses 8-character hex codes to define the colour and alpha. See:

Provide an example and screenshot if that does not work for you.

Here is an example of the problem we are having.

We input the hex code 8E5A33, but the color we see in-game shows up as EEFA33

It doesn't seem like an offset but a totally random color.

Any ideas?
