should this work with the latest 6.67 release ?
i'm asking because I see less element choices than the previous version of assembler.

yes , I trashed old script file and folder and put the new ones in

Version 0920 now in post #1

This version has some defences added, but I'm not sure its going to help at all because what people seem to be having are installation issues.

These are all installation problems. I don't know how to proceed, all I can ask is if you could please do this:
  1. Delete the old script and its resource folder before extracting the new version in. Delete first, do not overwrite an exiting one.
  2. Restart Reaper.
  3. Run the script and immediately use the ERASE THEME button at the top right.
  4. If you have problems, go to your theme folder using Options > Show Resource folder (do this even if you think you already know where that folder is) and check that you have the folder 'Assembled_Theme_Resources' and inside it are all the images and the rtconfig.txt file.

It would be great if you could give me as much information as you can about your theme folder, scripts folder, OS and and exactly what you are seeing, with screenshots if possible. I'm not going to be able to build a proper installer for this; I'm not a real programmer.

White Tie, I did the overwrite method for the first update - had the issue. Did the update today, as you said, by deleting old files first, and everything works fine.

Thanks again : )

thanks for the update. so, we have to erase the theme we've already made and start over or can we back it up beforehand, then execute ERASE THEME upon reinstall, and put back our backed up custom theme?

Very cool script.

However, some elements are not properly affected and will hence not fit with the modifications made in the script (either wrong colour, or fonts not readable). See screenshot below.

No you shouldn't have to do any of this, work in progress themes should just carry over. They do here. But if you're having errors because your installation has gone wrong somehow, my best advice for fixing things is first to nuke the site from orbit.

Thanks for making a screenshot, really helps. The colour of the toolbar text is changed using the theme tweak/configuration window (from the actions menu). The persistent colour bar under the track number area is intentional, what is it you wanted to do there?

I tried uninstalling everything and reinstalling. I still get this error and the graphics don't look right either.

I'm on windows 11.

sorry but i dont understand "nuke the site from orbit".

i would have to guess that people are hesitant to ERASE THEME because, well, they dont want to erase their custom theme. that was my thinking anyways.

This script is in development. The themes it makes are fully functional, and I've been working on the ability to save off a snapshot of the theme, but as I add functionality I need to change things and that's going to break things. There's no other way.

Well, the Theme Assebler script allows me to pick default colours for selected/nonselected TCP/MCP. Here I can choose several levels of grey, as well as "panel", all of which deviate from the default greenish colour. I would like the track number area to follow those changes (i.e. with a tinted or lightened version of those chosen greys, instead of staying greenish and not matching anymore).

white tie, thank you again for this tool. Erase theme solved some of my issues but I still get reaconsole error messages. Not a big deal because I can just ignore them and create a custom theme.

I believe if you colour all your tracks to the shade of grey you want it might solve the issue for you.

Or in other words: How do I make it behave like the original REAPER 6 theme?

OK I will report back but i'm in the middle of a computer swap. Maybe I will start with a complete fresh install of Reaper altogether.

If I have an assembler theme I like, how do I pack it so the next update for the assembler won't replace it?

I'd like to know too it looks lovely.

Is this an OSX thing?

p.s. can you start the theme assembler from ANY reaper theme? I've always thought it had to come from the default but this thought just popped into my mind

well, I have the same exact issue amongst others. previous versions showed that option how to change. latest versions is missing a few of them.
I'm on OSX as well.
Too bad I can't show a the theme adjuster window picture right now.
Maybe another osx user can post to show the missing elements.

actually , you have to choose 'panels' in the editor instead of the various tint strengths

there we go. unfortunately, selecting the panel option disables dark mode on the routing matrix and fx gui for me. i guess in life there are always sacrifices.

See the first post for...

Update 0928

Export Theme
This button will save a out a new theme, under a name of your choosing, that is a snapshot of the current state of your assembled theme, so you can carry on and spoil everything without fear!

Installation Fixes
Hopefully I have solved some/many/all of the installation problems that were causing trouble for those of you getting missing files warnings and the like. Hopefully...



If you have an older version of the script, delete it and its resource folder before extracting the new version in. Delete first, do not overwrite an exiting one.

You could have done that manually, but the new version's EXPORT THEME will now do it all for you

Choose the 100 setting for the tint strength when you click by the track number.

Nothing has been removed, but lots has been added. Its all just arranged more neatly.

That won't be what's happening. The only thing that can change your dark mode is the Theme Colors & Fonts file (the t-shirt icon).

Update 1005

Tooltips
Hovering any element that can be changed will now spawn a descriptive tooltip; particularly handy for elements that don't have a mouseover state. I've had to do the tooltip delay within the script, so it doesn't follow Reaper's delay time preference. Let me know if it feels wrong.

This is absolutely amazing, except for now I can't use it because I haven't been able to get narrow or strip faders to work with this. Any chance that support for it gets added?

At some point in the future, different faders for different track layouts would make this absolutely perfect for me.

Thanks so very much to White Tie for all your work on REAPER.

As requested, here is what I am currently using, thanks to the Theme Assembler. I love the stability of the Default 6 theme, I just wanted it a little darker, so I used Theme Assembler to swap out image resources for darker ones.

Anyone can download it from Stash: https://stash.reaper.fm/theme/2865/B...ReaperThemezip
