Yes, in the POI editor you can
You get to it by right-clicking the track waveform
 
You can also map buttons to do it
Just map cue_color + number + color
Like this:
cue_color 1 'blue'
 
Nother interesting option is using the script above in a pad page, if you use the hotcue pad page to set your hotcues

Then you can make a new pad page just like the existing one, but change the script from:
hot_cue 1
hot_cue 2
hot_cue 3
...and so on - to the same script, but with a color script added, like
hot_cue 1 & cue_color 1 'blue'
hot_cue 2 & cue_color 2 'red'
hot_cue 3 & cue_color 3 'green'

Then when you set hotcues using the new pad page they will automatically get the matching color:

You can ofcourse do the same to the mapping behind the hotcue buttons on your controller, so they always also set a color
 
This inspired me to do a video on the subject
 
try this setting the way you see it in the image and all #1 will be one color all #2 another color etc....

The video disappears! I need The video !!!
 
It's a regular Youtube video:
EDIT: Removed - see below
 
 
 
Yes klausmogensen, the link in your post above works just fine.

The old link shows the video as being removed/no longer available.
 
Ok I got that, but now how can I get the color settings for cue points to reflect on my Apc controller ( I am using Akai Apc Mini)? I want my green cue point to show up green on the assigned pad, etc.
Anybody figured it out?
