since when do we have this API function? I totally missed it.
Thanks! replacing 120 lines of code with one line of code
I used my own function because SWS one had a bug at that time

OIC so Mr. WT got ya going did he?
you know... it's funny... I use my own mod of a V4 theme that WT originally made and it is sorta clean and sorta simple and for all the fancy improvements that WALTER has had and all the advanced skills WT has developed over the years... I actually prefer the V4 mod better... LoL... I do wish it could scale though

I couldn't update it today because I broke something the last minute... I had the idea of making the rec arm, mute, solo, monitor buttons on the top part below the track name, always visible without scrolling... I thought it was going to be easy to change it but no.
I guess you will have to wait a bit
I still use a small mod I did for Commala 4 theme. But I think it is good if the script has the Default 6 as the default theme for next version. But mmm it would be interesting to know, how many people use REAPER with default theme.
I am trying to improve the design because I want to start doing small videotutorials or video small tips at least.

I gotta say, that I never use the default theme. It's just too inconsistent. Love themes from Blankfiles. He really does a great job.

I'm going to vote here by saying I would never use the default 6 theme. It is not consistent at all and combines design elements from v5 that should have been addressed with completely new design elements in v6. Visually, it just looks like a mess, so while it has new features that are very nice, I would not choose to look at that all day.
I also am using Blankfiles' themes. I'm using the original iLogic v1.8a. If I moved away from that it would be to another Blankfiles theme.

v1.4rc7 (2019-05-02)
update available now.
fixing many small things and optimizations.
Reorder FX should be much faster and safer now using native API. And you can also drag an FX to another track in TCP to copy it. No visual indication when dropping, but it should work.
Adding CTRL drag the fader for fine adjustment, and including the new theme Default_6.0 to match icons and colors for the next theme in REAPER 6. It won't be enabled by default. If you want to try it, go to settings and use the Load theme... button. Browse to the Track Inspector VIP/Default Themes/ folder and select Default_6.0.ti_theme file.
* v1.4rc7 (2019-05-02)
+ Include Default_6.0 TI Theme. not enabled by default yet.
# fix: Pan law set to 0.0 for TI hidden track
# fix: prevent anticipative fx for TI hidden track
# fix: disable metering on TI hidden track
# internal: small update on Track tags for HeDaMixer Tag Tab feature
# fix autoscrolling to the top panel color sometimes
# fix mousewheel panel scrolling down forever
# right click on fader to open I/O window
# use native API functions for move and delete FX (requires REAPER 5.95)
+ drag FX and drop in TCP to copy fx to another track
# fix color panel draw issue when dock window was very narrow.
# sends and receives bars with tcp_volthumb icon
# toggle send envelope button as icon
# fix toggle send envelope in some cases
+ CTRL drag volume fader for fine adjustment

Two litte things:
There's still a tiny gap between the tiles and there seems to be some overlapping text in the send area:
EDIT: and could we have toggle "enlarge selected track" as an action in the action list?

ah... the midi sends are wrong now... thanks!
I'll add the action for enlarge selected tracks switch. Good idea.
the line separating panels... I can see it now when gap between panels is 0. and scrolling with middle mouse drag, sometimes I can catch the line and sometimes not.. strange. I don't know what is going on there. I normally don't see it because I have 10 pixels as gap between panels. Why do you have the gap at 0? Don't you prefer to separate each panel a bit?

It's just something my OCD noticed :P
I can even see it, when the margin is set to 10. I only set it to 0 to verify.
But anyway, if it's not fixable, no big deal

go to the FX track and CTRL click on the Send preset button S1 for example.
then on another track. just click on the send preset button to create the send.
What do you mean no sends for audio sends?

ah ha... OK I did not understand about how the S1, etc. worked, thanks
but on the audio sends in the TI a couple of things. [I tried to make a LICECap of this but the various IO windows will not stay open when the LICECap frame is open]
So... make an audio send from trk1 to trk 2
In the TI looking at trk 1 we see a filled bar for that send, only IF the send is from 1/2 to 1/2... if the send is 1/2 to 3/4 the bar is not filled...
Gotta be a little bug, because sending to 5/6 or other pairs it IS filled...
ONLY to 3/4 it is not filled.
And... if we keep open the IO window for trk1 so we can see the effect of the TI on that audio send, I see the bar for it in the TI vanish to the left way before the slider in the IO window is totally to the left.
It vanishes at about -30.0 db but in the IO window it can go to lesser db values...
So isn't that a mismatch of the amount of the send slider between what the IO window shows and what the TI shows???

I am changing 3/4 sends to be half height, but filled, instead of the current border only.
This is to indicate 3/4 sends which are used for sidechain. But it can be disabled in settings. "Indicate sidechain sends"
Also the minimum -30 db can be changed in settings. "Sends Minimum dB" and "Sends Maximum dB"
And sends that have MIDI, will be filled with a bit of transparency for better reading of the midi channel.

v1.4rc9 (2019-05-06)
Update:
_Stevie_ will be happy to know the lines are fixed. Or it should be
Unarm all tracks that have no MIDI items, and have active monitoring when a project is opened. You may not want this, so this is disabled by default, but it is something I will activate for myself, because I always forget the tracks armed when saving a project and the next day when I open a project I get feedback if I have moved the microphone or the levels are different.
* v1.4rc9 (2019-05-06)
# fix: 1 pixel separation between panels
# fix: changed font for frozen FX to font2
# fix: spacing when panel collapsed
# Tags: Mute/Solo as icon buttons
+ Unarm all not MIDI monitored tracks when opening a project.(experimental, disabled by default)

Brilliant HeDa!!! What a cool release
Yes, that margin is fixed now *dancing*
Just to be sure: the "enlarge selected track" shortcut didn't make it into rc9, right?

EDIT... nope... I did not find it...
seems like in previous version two color things were different
1- the amount of tint on the send bars when tinted with the matching track's color...
it used to be as strong as the matching track, now it is a very weak version of those colors
I'd prefer it to be very strong or be able to set the amount of tint maybe?
2- similar for the color of the panels in the TI...
I am not tinting them with the tracks colors but they are
tinted with something... my guess is they are about 50% of the
background color.... I think they used to be much closer to the
back ground color, which I would rather see
Could it be possible to control the amount of tint on them no matter how
they are set to be colored? by track color or not?
EDIT: I just sent what I'd like to be able to do in an email image to you, thanks much!

I think this is a really good idea. I really like the track color tinting right now as is, but this kind of customization would be really nice if it's not a giant pain to code.

the problem I see to have panel opacity to 1 is that it will look horrible because it was not designed as a background, but as overal tint and with some colors it won't work at full opacity. For example look what happens when increasing the opacity to 1:
So I would suggest not using tint or just panel opacity 0.4 max. This is why by default panels are not tinted by track color. It was causing problems but the option remained there.
about the transparency of MIDI sends, I can add a setting for it. I just lowered the opacity of MIDI sends because the text of the midi info is there too. Sends without MIDI are filled without transparency.
enlarge track and envelopes actions in next update

thanks HeDa...OK got it all looking sort of how I want it... except for the send and receive bars....
when I updated I did not keep the previous version, but I could have sworn in that version the bars for send and receive were the track colors that were involved in each S and R... AND they were the full 100% colors [or very close]
...and now they are very weak... so much so that whatever color they are don't matter cuz I can't distinguish it ...
I can see a bar there but in most cases it is very light in color... but wait cuz it gets stranger... I can't explain this in words so I'll get a LICECap and a jpg of the settings in a minute.
OK here we go...
https://stash.reaper.fm/36319/for%20HeDa%20TI%20VIP.zip
I put two files in the zip.. a LICECap and a jpeg of my settings
In the LICECap gif, you'll see as I change between tracks, some bars are full color but most are not and hard to see..
EDIT: Oh I see... "sends without midi are filled without transparency..." now I understand what I'm seeing...
...well, I like that way better for all the sends... and understand about the text but maybe that text could be a color we can set?

Thanks Hopi. I'll make an option for the opacity of MIDI sends soon. I was worried that the MIDI text would be readable at full opacity, but I'll make it an option. Or I can make the text black if the background color is too bright... Like in HeDaMixer.
Maybe, I would suggest you also to try to lower the buttons opacity from 0.5 to 0.2 or 0.1. It will make the text more have more contrast for better readability.

Hey HeDa! Have found a very serious bug which crashes Reaper.
It has to do with the send level. When entering -1000 as send level, Reaper
crashes immediately.
I found this out, when I was controlling the send level with my external MIDI controller. I went all the way down with the hardware fader and Reaper crashed.
But to be sure that it's not the controller, I typed in a very low value manually ( = -1000).
Also, I noticed, that TI doesn't show "-inf", when the lowest level has been reached. Could this be connected to the issue? Maybe a NAN issue?

you got me nervous and I tried this but no crash here...
and with a high enough min number I get it to go to a read out of -inf...
However it brings up an issue... about those values and the sliders in TI
If we set the min at -999 and the max at +10 [or so] there is a line at the right end of the slider that I assume is intended to match the 0 on the native slider... but on the native slider there is room to the right of 0..
On the TI there is not... so seems like that line should be either user tweakable as to where it shows along the slider or should be by default moved to the left quite a bit... so that there is room above 0 for the slider to travel and show...
And to HeDa... about the bar colors, being tinted or solid, etc. when there is midi... I'd be happy to just be able to make them as they show for an audio send even if there is midi in the send...
So instead of all the tint tweaking maybe just a toggle on off for that??? and with that the text going white or black depending on the bar color???
EDIT: a niggle: The text that says Track 2, or Track 3 that is above the send and receive bars... need more space at the left to allow for the readout when the readout goes into larger numbers and when that readout goes to a number like -101.58

I managed to crash it... oops.. without warnings.
I think REAPER limitation is -144 for the sends.. but who needs less than that? Why is your MIDI controller sending -1000?
Anyway I am fixing the crash

Hey Heda,
Stevie's controller isn't sending -1000 (that was just Stevie's test) - the controller is sending a value of 0 to reaper.SetTrackSendUIVol via a script.
So a fairly normal thing to do. My guesses is the crash only happens at the very bottom value of 0.

ah yes. thanks lb0
it was crashing on my function to convert to dB with 0 value. I should have checked better for the value before converting to dB. I get 0 on any value less than -144 dB so.. -145 or -1000 was causing the crash.

Hi Heda, so currently is there any way to open the routing window in the sends panel? I can mute and change volume, etc. but I don't see any way to just open the routing window itself. I could have sworn I was able to do that before.
Also, right-clicking on the track name at the top no longer selects the Master Track. Did this stop working or is there another way to do that now? That was very useful.

3 ways to open the route window - From the general panel: show the route button (I/O)
- From the meters panel: Right click on the volume fader
- From the sends panel: Left click on the send track name button.
Right clicking the track name should select the master track, and right clicking again the master track name should go back to previous track. Maybe you are clicking on the number ? They are two different buttons. Left click on the number goes to a track by entering the number. Left clicking the track name doesn't do anything. It may be a bit confusing now that I think.
