Help with tweaking Reaper Session Mixer
Hi Guys! I'm trying to no avail to add additional fader colours to Reapers Session mixer Layout... I have copied the previous fader code in reaper and changed the colour (trying to simply add a purple fader). I have created new Png's and added a new folder for the purple fader in the "session" folder... I am no Walter expert, but I feel like I have done everything right, but when I updated the theme within reaper.. the new layout does not show up. Xpander even offered me the same solution to my problem but it is still not working.... Can you guys look over my code here to see if I am missing something? Would really appreciate it. Lastly I feel like it's not something simple like the theme linking being broken, because I have added other layouts (like Xpander's VCA WALTER layouts) and they showed up no problem.
Thanks so much for your help! Cheers!
Code:
Layout "da - Session Mixer" "session"
; --------------- User adjustable values. Edit without fear. -----------------
set no_room [420] ; height below which it stops making sense and all bets are off...
; ------- End of user adjustable values. From here on may be dragons. ---------

Looks fine to me. My first guess is that you're doing something wrong trying to load the modified theme.

Hard to say. Feel like zipping it up and posting a link? I'll have a look.

Oh, I see it. I don't know what you did, but have a look at the first and last quotation marks here:
Code:
Layout “de ---- Session Mixer Purple Fader" "session/purple”
Those ain't right.

I recommend notepad++ for this, and there is a UserDefinedLanguage (UDL) by X-Raym for the rtconfig-coloring in the stash. (Search for UDL).
This can be imported into NP++ and colors the text according to its meaning (e.g. "set mcp*" has a different color than "set tcp*"). It's ready-to-run, give it a try!
Just to tell...

Yeah, the day I discovered Notepad++ was a revelation. Being able to split the view so you can compare two documents, or look at two parts of the same file at once... so much win.
Plus, for programming, being able to collapse your if/then structures and for loops is a godsend.

@vseanv: There are also cool plugins available, like "compare" to see the changes between two document versions side by side, or the "combine" plugin (e.g. open multiple documents that are numbered from 1 to * - combine them to one document).
There's a 64bit version available now, but if you decide to use NP++, select the 32bit version, the plugins are not available yet for 64bit.
@Lokasenna: Do you know, if the collapse thingy can be used in normal text files like the ReaMenus starting with a squared bracket, but ending at an empty line or at the last line of the text block?? I made a UDL for ReaMenus and had some success with ((EOL)) but not with \r\n. I tear my hair of...
