Default Item Notes Color

Hey Guys,
Is there a way to force white text on item notes?
Right now they're always Black and become white when I select them. I'd like the opposite behavior.

In the following Image, The top is the current behavior and the bottom is the desired behavior.

In the original Reaper Theme it is black (select) and gray.
You can change this in the Theme editor (media Item label)

But these are not Media item label, they are Item notes.

Did you try it?
What is the difference?
It is an empty item.
In the Menu/Insert, there is no "note"

Or what do you mean?

Let me chime in, this is a language problem.

In German, in this context a "note" is missunderstood as a musical note like it is used in the notation editor. In german we would call this s.th. like "notice". If we talk about musical notes in german we also say "note"

This is a real problem for Mr.Data, who made the german language pack.

@Gerd: Hier sind nicht Musik-Noten gemeint, sondern Anmerkungen/Notizen, die man an Items irgendwie anpinnen kann. [Edit: besser gesagt, man kann leere Items mit Text anzeigen]

Hallo Peter,
genau das meinte ich ja.
Das ist ein leeres Item. In dieses Item kann man schreiben und auch Bilder einfügen. Eine reines Notizitem gibt es in Reaper gar nicht. (Es sei denn man nutzt die Notizfunktion in einem normalen Item. Das ist hier aber nicht der Fall.
Und die Farben des Textes kann man im Theme-Editor ändern.


Gruß
Gerd

That's correct. The color of that note text can be changed in the Theme editor (Theme Development: Show theme tweak/configuration window in Actions list). Save the theme to keep the changes.

For the note text over the empty item it's the Media item label and Media item label (selected) colors. Since this is indeed the media item label color, it will also affect the color of regular item names too, if you have them showing inside and not above the items. If you have labels above the items, those will be affected by Floating media item label colors.
