I am developing a custom indicator for the
Tradovate platform.

I've created a color selector for one of the
objects that is plotted. The selector code is:

schemeStyles:
{
dark:
{
hldojiUp: {color: "white"},
hldojiDn: {color: "yellow"},
}
}

I would like to apply the selected color to
another object in my indicator. My question is
what is the correct pathname to reference
and reassign the color of hldojiUp or hldojiDn
to another variable or object?

Hey, not sure if I fully understand the question, but if I understand correctly, you're asking how to access either hldojiUp/hldojiDn values?

Assuming schemeStyles is a variable, and not a key in another object (you used schemeStyles: {} syntax, which is referencing a key, vs schemeStyles = {}, which is referring to an assignment) console.logging the following would result in 'white':
 
Code
  const schemeStyles = {
  dark: {
    hldojiUp: {color: "white"},
    hldojiDn: {color: "yellow"},
  }
 };

console.log(schemeStyles.dark['hldojiUp']['color']) --> "white"
You'll need to make sure that the object keys you're referencing are in quotes to indicate a String.
