BUG:
1) Make 2 folder tracks and put some tracks into them.
2) Now insert a spacer track just before the second folder track.
3) In the MCP, collapse the first folder. (You now see both folder tracks next to each other with a spacer between.)
4) Right-click the spacer track and try to delete it. It cannot be deleted.
5) Now expand the first folder so you can see all of its tracks.
6) Then you will be able to delete the spacer track.

*(4) (Although it can if you right click on the track area itself and not the spacer).

There are some issues with the theme adjuster when identifying the current theme version, as it seems that only the default theme will pop up the script: Default_7.0_theme_adjuster.lua
For example, if I use the Default_7.0_WT_TheAntiTheme, the pop-up script is: Default_6.0_theme_adjuster.lua

Works great, thanks!
One question: for a non-default theme, the function to reset all theme settings has disappeared. It was quite useful.


Oh, wait. This seems to be a bug: I see two shortcuts that overlap each other:

On Macbook Pro running macOS 12.7.5.

In the Theme Adjuster...

* Track Panel page, I scroll down to the Section Assignments, click on e.g. the blue square to change something in layout C BUT the window jumps right back to the top of the page ! and I have to scroll back down to see the Section Assignments again.

Please fix! Nothing should ever move out of view unless the user wants it to.

Same behavior on the Mixer Controls page.

* The window will not scroll if the mouse is over any of the control sections. I have to move the mouse to teh right side to an empty part of the window. That's annoying.

* All the right adjustment arrows are slightly misaligned a pixel or two higher than the left arrows.

* May I suggest splitting the Track and Mixer Controls so the Track and Mixer Layout (ABC) controls are on different pages, rather than having to do so much scrolling? i.e. Track Controls, Track Layouts, Mixer Controls, Mixer Layouts

* Similarly Custom Color Palettes could be separated too.

The very first release of that theme didn't have an "adjuster_script" definition because it hadn't been invented yet. Grab that theme download again.

Yeah that is indeed that button, oops, thanks! On reflection I think the 'Reset all theme parameters to default values' makes more sense on the page with said theme parameters, so I'll move it to the bottom there.

I agree that is not great, but it is also intentional. For 'this script was coded by a designer not a programmer' reasons it refreshes the entire page at times to prevent draw errors, and one of those occasions is on layout change. Sorry.

Ugh. Thanks for the explanation, I understand, but it's "awful", rather than "not great". I fear you're gonna get in the neck for that on release.

* Visibility Programmer - Meter values don't behave correctly with hide "If Not Selected"

This had an extremely long pre process, I'm very very late, so if it doesn't affect the functionality then I'd rather get it to the users than pull it from the RC.

The meters thing is a REAPER redraw quirk. The script lets you set conditions that won't necessarily cause the meters to redraw.

* Global - Color Processing Faders pop in and out of view. The Highlights fader can even go missing entirely. This does NOT happen to the Shadows fader, or to fader anywhere else, which behave correctly at all times.

I had expected to also see this option in the 'Choose format for Apply FX/Glue/Freeze/etc' dialog box. I have a project that was recorded at one sample rate, but I'm mixing in another. I want to freeze/glue some tracks/items, but they won't retain their original sample rate if I do that.
Could we please get that option added to this?:



A side note, if you search for 'preserve' in Preferences, there are a couple items that are shown as matches which aren't relevant at all.


Thank you!

The preferences search also searches the help text for each control.

Hello~

Here are a couple of weird behavior/bugs I've seen so far in Theme Adjuster:


Embedded TCP UI – No way to hide TCP parameters when empty?


Sends are not pinning at the bottom of the track:


Suggestion: when tracks set to balanced, track name shouldn't stretch when arming to record.



I think that's it so far! Been playing with it for the last hour and rest is working fine. Thanks for the hard work!

* Theme adjuster

Global - Custom Color Palettes - Recolor project using this palette

- Color changes don't update on the MCP until a new track selection is made. Clicking an already selected track won't force the update. (I assume this is known behavior but just in case).

- Tracks in a folder of the same color are recolored to the same new color, even if other tracks in the folder are of a different color. Is this expected behavior?

- MCP track numbers don't shift down in position when the selection dot is active. Should they match the TCP Track Number behavior?

Track Controls

- TCP volume and pan readout values have much larger margins than other TCP elements, particularly on RHS of volume and LHS of pan. Is this fixable?

Mixer Controls

- Show Meter values on selected tracks is bust. I assume this is same issue as TCP meter values? It works perfectly for unselected and rec armed, but if it can't work for selected tracks, perhaps remove it for selected tracks on MCP and TCP?
