Die Types really hard to see in chat log (Cortex Prime)

I'm going to be playing Marvel Heroic Roleplaying. And as far as know, the support for Cortex Prime system games is pretty complex in Roll20. So therefore I think using tokens as Dice is the most straightforward way to play. Then selecting the dice I want to roll to form the Dice pool. It's nice that the rolls show up in the Roll/chat log on the side when you do this. However the die types are really hard to see when you do this. Is there a way around this problem?
Here's an image demonstrating what I am talking about.

The dice should be based on whatever is your user color is. Try switching to a darker user color and regenerating.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be because of the color my user has. It just seems to be, because I'm rolling a token that isn't bound to any one player. When I roll dice by /roll 1d20 for example, I see the color of my user. But in this case, there is no user, so the color is probably a neutral default.

I think I understand better. How are you creating the tokens in the first place, and then how are you rolling them? I had assumed you were rolling (say) a d20, then dragging it from chat onto the tabletop, preserving the color. Then rolling them by selecting the token and right clicking to choose a random side.

Then rolling them by selecting the token and right clicking to choose a random side. That's exactly what I'm doing. But the result of click "choose random side" the results are white dice in the chat log. EDIT: Additionally, if I connect the token with a user profile by double clicking the token and choosing my username in the drop down menu in there, it still produces a "neutral" roll in the chat log, without any color to the dice.

Ah, I see what you mean. I've never used them like that. You might need to look for a different solution. The die color in this case is a pretty niche use case, and would probably require a Suggestion. Otherwise, the only thing I can see is an API script.
