Default Changing color of track

Hi guys. I have a problem with changing a color of the track. I went to actions->theme tweaks and I tried to change everything what is black, but the color of selected track remains black. I need to change it to the color what is selected for the track (in this case it's dark orange). So after clicking on it, I want it to turn the existing color just to brighter shade. Hope you get it. Sorry for my lame english. Thanks for advice.

it should not be a theme tweak

it should be an action to change the color of the selected item...

'items' or 'item' is the term reaper uses for midi or wav files that exist on a track...

'track' is the term used for what you already have showin as orange in the TCP

also you likely want to get the SWS extentions and can then make life easier by making your own color set
to use with the actions for SWS Colors

for this to be changed you need enable the option first.
go to:
options -->Preferences -->Appearance -->Peaks/Waveforms
and turn on:
Tint Media Item Background To:
and/or:

test that first if you haven't, so you can see if it's just Commala's theme or not.
This will help narrow down the source of the issue.

Go to Themes folder/Comala folder open rtconfig.txt, delete lines
Code:
version 5  
tinttcp 1500
as this theme do not use macros and etc. you can do that.

Go to preferences and these settings gonna be active.

Then you can go to Comala folder again and edit item_bg and item_bg_sel with gimp or other graph editor.


Also. You want this?


I attach those two files I remade, or you can do it for yourself.
