Excellent. And are you getting the 'settings not saving' problem?

I then checked the timestamp on the .ini file and saw that the timestamp had changed.

I loaded an older project (the one i first started working with) and it now appeared correct as well.

Not sure what the catalyst is for this, but I am very curious for others to test switching to Default 5 for the theme, then back to Default 6, and see if it suddenly starts working for them as well. And if it does, the million dollar question is "why does this work," or was it just coincidence
Well, this sounds like a fix that has worked for others so that's great, but I join you in the general air of 'WTF?'

Delete your reaper-themeconfig.ini, or open it and delete the bits related to this theme if you've been experimenting with any modded versions.

SWS Auto color is a far more sophisticated bit of software than this script, but both fundamentally do the same thing in the end : change the colours of the things that are saved in your project. Its not surprising that they argue with each other! Any form of interoperability would absolutely have to come from the SWS side; trust me when I say that neither you, me or them would want me poking around in their code!

So weird.



Please keep reporting in folks. I'm getting pretty confident this is a Reaper thing, not a my script thing, but all data will help in finding the solution whatever it may finally be.

Thanks!
