my current theme is beginning to suffer from Reaper updates I think, hence looking for a new one earlier than I need. but strange.. I didn't look for the view route before admitting to a red face but I cant see 'View: Toggle mixer visable'. I guess that could be a symptom of the above. I can just drag the mixer down in my current theme - which seems not to be in the stash anymore. I did discover CTRL+M while sifting through stuff. Didn't know that - :shame: :redface: again ... ah well thanks for the posts :)
Realized that with coloring on some things had to change. Thanx hopi (took your tcp foldercomp idea, turned it upside down with a hack to match the look in the mcp). Updated the stash. With track panel coloring on Old post...
nice HW... looking good %^) PS... maybe a niggle... long story short: HW you know I did a bit of a mod for myself that involves the vol sliders for the tcp and mcp... and in so doing I had to very slightly change the one in the mcp so that the top and bottom horizontal lines would show up in the vol slider where I wanted.... OK so... I think maybe this current version needs a very minor tweak for that mcp scale as well... What I see is the top horizontal line, when at max volume, shows above the middle hollow box of the mcp vol slider... Now I'm assuming it should show inside that hollow box [the dead center of the slider]... Maybe I'm mistaken as to your intention for this... so it's not a big deal... just thought to mention it in case it matters to you. Also... hey nice on the png for the mcp that shows when the track is not a folder... seems you found a way to make it work!
hopi...you might not recognize this theme now. I've changed things as I've used it...for my own workflow. Constant state of change for the time being. The black creates contrast, and I'm using baby blue for selected tracks. Changed the sliders etc... Your comments are always welcome and appreciated. Just changed the volbg... Haven't put this in the stash... Old post
Updated the stash with a new version meant to be colored. Its called Simple-Coloring I tried to match all the colors as much as possible. It supports a single folder level that is indicated as best I could in both mcp and tcp. Also I attempted to have the tcp icons line up. One pic here and a couple more in the stash.
As this theme is intended to support 1 level of folder, I've played with a new folder/children layout for the mixer. This is how it looks with 'Tint track panel backgrounds' active. Completely useless with it off of course :-)). This deviates a little from the flat-ish style. Any comments? Thanx for your help and support hopi.
