Default Walter: Horizontal meter without input label, possible ?

Hi !


So on Reaper 4 theme, you have the nice Shy meter layout with horizontal meter.


Though for some reason in Rec Mode, it has the input label right on the Meter, despite the fact we already see the label above. Worst, this label name is truncated. The theme IMHO has a long stading unpolished point there.



I tried to delete it for my theme (which is ultimately based on this one), but all I succeeded to do is to make the label and its border disappear with opacity 0 (so in fact it is still there), but not the vu meter numbers go back to the start of the meter.





Quote:
set tcp.meter.inputlabel.color [0]
set tcp.meter.inputlabelbox.color [0]

How would you make the meter stays the same in both rec and normal mode ?


(note that in my second screenshot the usual input label field has also disappear in normal mode).



Thx !

I changed the title thread so that it reflects maybe a bit more what it is about.


Isn't there any theme with an horizontal meter which doesn't display input in rec mode ?


Thanks !

I’d be curious about this too. Was messing around with modding a theme and gave up on the horizontal meters which I otherwise like because of how bad it looks with the input overlaid on it in recarm mode. Would be terrific if they could be separated.

Are you aware of the «rec_armed» scalar value? You can use it to set the color in record-armed mode, I guess. I might be misunderstanding the problem.

Only way I know of making it disappear is

Preferences/Appearance/Track Control Panels/Show track input when record armed

Unselect and the problem should be gone
