No, it says: Delete the ; from the start

I may have put it in wrong way, sorry, I've meant that You should ONLY delete ";" at the beginning of the row. However this will only show on the left side of the panel like in default6, at the moment I don't know much about how to put it to the right side.

Hello Martonovics,

your theme became now my new Reaper default

Do you know where i can find in the rtconfing the line for hiding elements when zoom out vertically (such like pan knob, fx, route...)? I don't want mess with your theme, it's just that in a certain point while zooming out i would like to hide those elements otherwise looks a bit chaotic in the TCP. I did this already with the default 6 theme, but i totally forgot where are those lines.

Thank you for your time.

I am glad to hear that!
Could You tell me in a more specific way? Or maybe a picture/gif, because I'm not sure I know what the problem is :/ Thanks!

Hi Martonovics, forget my question please. Once i did something similar for hiding the items name/index. I don't know if this is possible at all with controls of TCP.

Thanks again.

Hey Martonvis - this is a really good theme.

I hacked together some of the icons and the channel send background and colour from the FLogic theme with what you created and it has come up really nicely. The altered version is my new default theme.

Love your work.

Default Instantly, my new default...

And that is saying something! You are on to something very good here, and White Tie should be paying attention. Choice of fonts and graphics is nuanced and bang-on. Emphasis should be on decluttering the GUI at every turn.. The ergonomics are so much better thanks to your efforts. Please, build a series around this, where the only difference is colour themes and how they contrast. My eyes like to see light themes with highly contrasted elements. At 61, this is helpful. Great work though. You have the gift of actually "getting it".

Default Folders on by default?

Hi,

Love the theme. Thank you.

I wonder why you hid the folder icon? It's a major part of routing in Reaper.

I know you gave instructions to turn them on but that's a lot of detailed faffing and risks breaking something else if you're not really careful.

So with it off, how do you set folder properties for a track? Or do you just not use them?

Cheers.

Thank you, I really appreciate it! I'm already planning to do a light version of this theme where things would get little bit more contrasted, but it’s hard because some things on this theme just look nice because they don’t stand out too much

Hi! Thanks
I hid it because I'm only using the dragging method, or some actions with toolbar icons. The only button that i'm using in the TCP area for this purpose, is the folder icon to collapse them.

EDIT: I updated due to political pressure

Thank you - really appreciate it. This works really well for me now.

Default small mixer tracks?

I really like this theme, but the mixer tracks are too wide for my current monitor. I can make them bigger, but... could we have smaller sizes too? (75%, 50% ...)

If you're referring to the images of the theme, it seems there's a docker set up with a toolbar containing shortcuts to actions that color the tracks/items (and other action shortcuts). So you'll have to set that up.

You can try the "narrow form" MCP view from the "theme adjuster".

At 6:53 that particular option is demonstrated. (You'll need to watch some of the video before that though, to understand fully.)

If you're wondering if there's just an action you can assign to do that without going into the Theme Adjuster, there isn't one that I know of.

Default that's actually my new favorite

that's actually my new favorite.

Maybe a little too dark to "my taste"
but otherwise perfect.

Adding the possibility to fully color the tracks in the tcp (and not just the edge and the name) would be a nice addition in the layouts though.

Great theme!! would it be possible to create a version where in track panel M and S buttons always remain in the same position side by side ? (same position as when the track is completely minimized to be kept also for higher track heights

The moving Mute button depending on track eight is quite confusing (I know is the same for the original theme...).

The flip phase button would be required to be put within the track panel and not in the mute / solo zone clearly

Default Light version

Hi,

If you have a bit of time? I would be amazed by a lighter verion, i.e with a light background for the arrange view.
I tried to tweak your themes, but unfortunatly, the midi/audio items looks weird then (with a light background).

Hi, thanks! I don't know that much about theming, but actually I like the way it works, probably this is just something I get used to, cause Your idea makes more sense.

What a coincidence, something like this? I planned for today, so be a little patient!

@martonovics

Thanks for a great theme, i've had quite a few folks asking about it in my youtube videos lately.

One thing that I am having trouble figuring out is the difference in saturation of media items, track colors, etc, versus the default theme.

For example, here's a project with the default theme: (note: image thumbnails should link to full size)




and here's the same project with the theme switched:



Is there any way to get similar saturation of colors in your theme without affecting anything at a global level?

Thanks

Hi, thanks! I planned a smaller update for today which will contain multiple version for these colorized stuff soo there will be some other choice for the saturation. Cheers!

Really, really like this.

The only issue I have (and it's because my eyes are not brilliant) is seeing which track is selected in the MCP.

Having said that, maybe there's a setting in the tweak bit. I'll have a look. It's an issue I have with many themes.

Being old sucks.

As the folders names suggest, one is for the different colorizing methods, the other is for the TCP fxlist/parameters position, instructions included on what to do with them If anyone interested in it

Nice theme. I like it very much.
Mainly because I can now see my buttons better in the tip bar. It is due to the good ouline of the icons.

Which version? The dark or the light? I think I can make something more highlighted for You

I'm using the dark one; I absolutely love it! It's very kind to offer, but don't worry too much as most people can probably see it just fine! My eyes are rubbish!
