Origin 2019 begins a phase-out of the Color List tab. To edit a color list in Origin 2019 or later, go to the color control for a particular element -- Symbol Edge Color, Line Color, Pattern Fill Color, etc. -- and click the list control (downward-pointing arrow) beside that element. On the By Points tab (see image above), click the pencil icon Button edit pencil.png at the right end of the color list and this will open the Increment Editor, giving you access to the color list.
