The latest alpha is great! One thing I was thinking about was in the mixer, could the solo and mute be arranged in a staggered pattern...in a way that would make swipping across multiple tracks on a touch screen possible when wanting to mute or solo? Just a thought...

I still have issues seeing the track names in the mixer and inspector.
I'm on a Mac, I have installed the fonts, which has aligned things, better, but struggling to read the track names.

Just tested and it doesn't make a difference where the finger swipe goes after the initial pressing of either mute or solo so don't think that's needed (unless I misunderstood?)

I have the same opinion. In every new alpha I change the walter font 2 and 3 sizes to 13, and more importantly, in rtconfig.txt I change set mcp.label.color to [200 200 200]. That makes things much better for me.

rtconfig.txt is individual for each theme. It's located in a theme's ReaperThemeZip file.
In order to be able to edit rename it to Zip, open as archive, go to PRO-X TOOLS folder inside this archive. There you will find it. Make changes in this file, save it to update archive, rename the zip archive back to ReaperThemeZip. Refresh theme in Reaper. Something like this.

Well, I can't tell why that's happening.
These are very basics of theme editing, so it should work.

I too followed your instructions to do this and it messes up my theme too.

Okay guys, I'm sorry my instructions created problems for you. Still no idea why is it so. Probably I made them not too clear.
I've sent you my edit of the theme via pm, that I made using the same instructions I've provided you with.

I hope that's not a problem for Albert, knowing that all of us donated anyway.

Thanks Flynne, that fixed the MCP label issue. Still having issues with the track name on the inspector panel though.

Albert if you fix these issues on the Mac, I will happily donate some more cash to help the cause

Great update!! Almost there Albert

Some quick feedbacks:
1. Smaller separator between mixer panel and master track panel, because when used together the tab on the docker is appearing(even with the option "Compact Docker when small and single tab" is used) See screenshot for more details.

-Maybe a fader on master track to allow to adjust volume quickly or a clickable zone on the db numbers(not only on arrows, too small)

-Would be great to be able to use the same font as you on custom icon

hello all, you can unpack the theme using winrar, notice that inside there is a folder and file, no problem if you let decompressed, the theme will work

Hi Albert-

I love this theme, but I'm wondering if editing values in the Transport can be fixed:



Thanks!

In your video you don't save any of the screen sets you make. You have to save once you set it up a certain way. Watch the video Albert posted and follow it to a tee.

Thank you for your help !

However, i do exactly as instructed in that video and still the issue as shown in my previous post - vid:

Layouts not remembered in the different screensets plus have to reposition divider line between Main and left docked Mixer.

Maybe this is a Reaper bug .. ?

You must use Screensets/windows.., place all and save, assigns a key ...
You will change through keyboard commands..

Probably you have manually assigned a layout to that particular track and that's why it doesn't change.
Load your empty default project and do there the assignments. It should work

Sorry if I missed it but is there a way on a Mac to make the mixer window tracks shrink with the size of the mixer window, like the default view? I saw the post towards the beginning about clicking on a preference that says to make it smaller, but I have no such preference and am thinking maybe that was only for PC's?
Presently my mixer tracks are just way to tall to do anything with : (

I understand, but it doesn't take away the issue for me that i have to move the divider line between Inspector View and Arrange View, to make Inspector View fully visible: cumbersome
