When I want to add a new workout in the calendar, previously, depending on the type of activity, the color was default (e.g., blue for cycling, brown for running, etc.). Now it’s gone 
Calendar - Options - Colors
The problem still exists. It seems that if I change the workout color to something other than the default (e.g., running to yellow), for every subsequent workout I want to add, the default color is set to the last used color (i.e., yellow), for all newly added activities, no matter what is the type (swim, ride, run).
Even if default color for run is set to brown in Calendar options.
???
Tick this box to ignore the color attribute for workouts and it should get the default color for the type.
If you don’t tick that box, the color will be what is defined in the workout setup
I think we’re misunderstanding each other. I want specific colors to be assigned to each sport type. Blue for cycling, brown for running, etc. But when I try to add a workout, cycling shows up as brown instead of blue.
Believe me, I tried checking and unchecking, changing colors, but it stubbornly keeps the last one selected. For example, if I pick yellow, then every new activity—no matter the sport type—turns yellow, whether I check the box you mentioned or not
Check this box to and you will immediately see the result for the activity type in the calendar. (not in the workout editor)
That checkbox instructs Intervals to ignore the color setting from the workout editor and simply take the color of the category.
Do that for each category!
Here’s an example on an already created workout
Belive me, I am not crazy person 
last time was set to brown, box is checked, and brown color is now for everything: notes, races, sick, injury, etc.
Oh, I think I’m getting it now 
Before, the Add Entry defaulted to a specific color per category? And now it uses the last selected color no matter what the entry is?
Haven’t been using it like that, so can’t confirm if there is a behaviour change…
I really thought you were talking about the way it displays in the calendar. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
@david will need to have a look.

The add/edit calendar entry dialog now remembers previously selected colours per category. I don’t think it did that before but it does now.
Is it possible to do like it was before, it means that everytime when I add workout the color is set to default type.
