Please add several new checkboxes to your installation!

1. Change the "JS FX processing (TONS of FX)" to:

Code:
+─■ Audio processing plug-ins
│ │
∙ ∙
∙ ∙
∙ ∙
│ │
+─□ Install JS FX support
│ └─□ Install JS FX script library
Benefit: users who have customized their REAPER/Effects folder (for example, me, I have renamed most of JS scripts, and removed some that I'd never use), would not have to manually move the Effects folder out of the Reaper folder before updating to new version, then deleting the usual Effects folder which gets installed, then moving their custom Effects folder back in.

CURRENTLY, if we detick installing JS, those scripts will not get installed, but even if we add some in Effects folder, Reaper will NOT recognize them! So, this is basically separating JS support from JS library, as it should've been from the start!

2. Add "Install Themes" checkbox under Customizations, with subcheckbox "Install legacy "2.0" and "Classic UI" themes"

Code:
+─■ Customizations
│ ├─□ European Keyboard Key Maps
│ └─■ Install Color Themes
│   └─□ Install legacy "2.0" and "Classic UI" themes
Benefit: Some users don't use this theme, and they are superfluous to them!

3. Add "Install Custom Toolbar Icons" checkbox, which, if unchecked, would NOT delete the current Data/toolbar_icons folder! (These custom icons should all be moved to the Default.ReaperIconsZip archive anyways, to ensure absolute theme portability!!!)

Code:
+─■ Customizations
│ ├─□ European Keyboard Key Maps
│ ├─■ Install Color Themes
│ │ └─□ Install legacy "2.0" and "Classic UI" themes
│ └─■ Install Custom Toolbar Icons
Benefit: This is also for people who have their custom toolbar icons folder and who have customized it to the extent that installing over that folder would break it for them! (For example, currently the custom icons are TERRIBLY sorted! Left arrow should be RIGHT NEXT to right arrow, and currently they are quite apart from each other!)



Anyone has something to add?


Is this possible to get in the next build? :)



P.S.:
■ means "previously checked by the devs"
□ means "empty checkbox"

What is your problem to create a discussion thread like (almost) everyone else, EvilDragon?

v4 pre-release cycle request:

* Disregard point number 3.: Install Custom Toolbar Icons! I vote for COMPLETE REMOVAL of toolbar_icons folder in Data folder of Reaper's resource folder. It's time to change some defaults. ALL themes should now pack their toolbar icons directly to ReaperThemeZip (provided they're named toolbar_<icon name>)! This will ensure complete interchange between themes, provided all themes have the same toolbar icons skinned under same image filenames.

And that being said we need a set of standardized names for v3 icons, well at least WT talked about it. We've entered the pre-release cycle, so I guess it's time!
