How to change colors of function plots in Tensorboard?

I'm trying to compare different learning-rate-decays using Tensorflow. Therefore I visualize the cost functions in Tensorboard ('EVENTS'-tab). My problem is that the different plots of the functions are in very similar colors making it hard to compare them. Is there any possibility to change those colors?

Just create different summary writes with different log files for each learning rate. Then launch the tensorboard tool using:

tensorboard --logdir=tag1:/path/to/summary/one,tag2:/path/to/summary/two

In newer version, --logdir_spec is required.

tensorboard --logdir_spec=tag1:/path/to/summary/one,tag2:/path/to/summary/two

This is very far from an actual solution, but in case someone only wants to change the colors for a screenshot in a paper or presentation its a quick workaround:

  1. Open your browser dev tools (F12)
  2. Search for the color code you want to change (the default orange is #ff7043) and replace it with the color you want

As suggested here, creating (and pointing tensorboard to) a symlink of a run's logdir is one workaround to change the color used to plot that run.

There's currently no way to change those colors, but a recent release has made the colors more differentiated. Try updating and seeing if that helps.
