To change both, you'll have to edit the rtconfig.txt file which is bundled in the theme, in this way :

1) make a safe copy of the theme and change its extension from .ReaperThemeZip to .zip.
2) Unzip it. You should have a file with a .ReaperTheme extension and a subfolder containing all the graphic files and also the rtconfig.txt one.
3) Open this one and find in it the two following lines starting as :

set tcp.volume.label.font...
set tcp.volume.label.color...

The first one allow to choose among the eight fonts normally setted in the 'Theme development/tweaker' window and listed as WALTER font 1 ... WALTER font 8. This, to override the one setted as Volume/pan label font in the same window, just above the previously mentioned eight ones. The font number choosed should be mentioned between brackets (i.e. : set tcp.volume.label.font [5]).

The second one contains the R/G/B/T values (from 0 to 255) of both the charecters themselves and their background (up 8 values allowed). In this case, only the first three ones are important, as they set the actual color of the characters. As above, the choosed values should also be mentioned between brackets (i.e., for nearly black ones : set tcp.volume.label.color [32 32 32]).

4) Save the edits done.

4) ReZip BOTH the file with the .ReaperTheme extension and its associated subfolder together.

5) Change the resulting archive extension form .zip to .ReaperThemeZip.

Work done...

Thanks for this info cubic13. So for White Text I should use [255 255 255]
