I'm going to mention this here - rather than via email - in case anyone else can benefit from this.
First of all, Cincikat sent me my modded theme back, and I was able to tweak it to perfection. so, thanks again for that!!
As a question of semantics:
When we're editing the rconfig.txt file - and adding lines like you mentioned above
Code:
Layout "-TCP MIDI" "fader-blue"
set tcp.volume tcp.volume
set tcp.label.color [10 120 180]
EndLayout
Are we "using WALTER"?
(Remember, I'm new to this)
I thought WALTER was going to be some utility, where you told it what colors to use, and fed in various things - and it "compiled" (well, produced all the right files with the right syntaxes) your theme.
I thought I was just hacking away at some text files - rather than getting involved with this whole "official" process.
But the more I read - hacking away with rtconfig.txt, and playing around with the png files etc - *IS* "using WALTER". Isn't it? ;-)
The pieces are slowly starting to come together... ;-)
