I have some KML files automatically generated that have a track, then a bunch of placemarks that are basically segments of tracks.

The placemarks are highlighted in various colours (to indicate top speed, etc).

When I open the files in Google Earth, the colours work fine.

When I open them using Cesium, the highlight segments all appear in white instead of the expected colours.

Can someone tell me whether this is just an un-implemented Cesium KML thing, or whether there is a problem with my KML file.

Here’s a sample file:

This appears to be a bug. I’ve opened a case ([#2770](https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/cesium/issues/2770)). We expect to be able to get a fix in the next release, v1.11.

This is has been fixed and will be in Cesium 1.19 on March 1st.
