That was only true of FrameMaker versions through 7.x.  As of FrameMaker 8.0, 
text that has multiple conditions applied is displayed in a color that is the 
average of the indicator colors for all of the conditions. No more magenta text 
(unless you like magenta and define a condition to use it as the indicator 
color). But the downside of this is that FrameMaker automatically adds to the 
color catalog for the document a uniquely named (e.g. fm_gen_225319, 
fm_gen_225320, etc.) color definition for each combination it encounters, even 
if the combination is not unique. I've seen files with over 200 such 
definitions in the color catalog.
