3 General Questions on Themes

Hartley Mays · 08-24-2010, 08:09 AM

Hello,

I have three general questions on themes in Reaper based on my so far unfortunate experience with a new theme from SatyaTunes, documented in this thread in the Themes forum:

http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=63117

1. Is there any way to debug or obtain some sort of console log from when Reaper attempts to load a theme but encounters a problem?

2. Any ideas about what could cause a given theme to load OK on one PC but not on another? What difference(s) could be relevant?

3. What kinds of problems in the theme zip itself might cause problems? The only two discussed so far in this case was the directory for the PNG's and the setting of the Preferences, but both seem OK.

Thanks,
Hartley

Could you please try firing up one of my themes and see if you have any problems?

White Tie,

I'll try that this evening when I'm back in the studio. In general, I haven't had trouble loading other themes, including the second one from SatyaTunes. I looked at their structure and didn't see any obvious differences bertween his two themes. I was not the only one unable to get the first to load; however it appears that it did load OK for others.

Later,
Hartley

White Tie,

All 3 seem to work OK.
