Is this supposed to happen when you load a new theme?

[rluka]

Fist off I would like to say that I am totally blown away by Reaper. I bought it a few weeks ago and its great. I switch between Sonar X2 and Reaper.
Im trying out some of the available themes and they look great but I run into one thing on all of them that doesn't happen when Im using the default theme. I have about 10 or more themes and they all do this. When I arm a track in the newer themes the VU meter gets covered with another menu.
I included two screen shots. The first picture shows two unarmed tracks and the second picture shows one armed and one unarmed track.
Maybe something has to be changed in the options menu.(Im new so please bear with me)
Thanks to everyone involved...

In Preferences look for 'Make obvious that track input is clickable' under VUmeters/Faders maybe it helps.

Hello rluka and welcome to these forums. You'll find many helpful people here and a lot of useful information.

That's designed into the theme; here is one that does it differently (Silent's Vandy's Calculator, WALTERed for v4.xx):



It can be changed by editing the theme, if it is a WALTER theme (can't remember the WALTER element name at the moment).

I'll check that out. It really doesnt bother me because I usually just look at the the mixer faders. Is there a way of removing the faders from the track view? I have a really nice 38 inch monitor and the colors look great as does the whole interface. And I run the mixer on my laptop screen.

Thanks for your input!!

Thank you, I have been listening and learning a lot off these forums for the past two weeks. Im really happy with the default theme for now and I will try the other themes.
Thanks again
