Dark Theme in Sonar
I am absolutely loving the dark theme and the color expansion. When I started up platinum after the download, I almost fell off my chair. This is great.

Exactly what I wanted. Thank you bakers.

I am enjoying the new theme. Its almost like a new Sonar. I'm not sure but it seems things are easier to see. Clearer and more distinct. I'm almost sure this is due to placebo but for now I'm going with just enjoying it. Well done indeed.

Yep, I hope to see more themes over time. I'm not one for wanting to be able to edit every little thing, but a few nicely created themes (like this new one) would be welcome. It's the beginning of forever.

You have to use the CCC and "roll back" for the early access.

To use the new Tungsten theme, you'll need to download the Early Access release. It's the new default. But you can change themes in Preferences>Themes.

The old one is called Mercury.
One can change to the old one or have the new one. Again CW has given back choice.

One isn't rolling back but to DL it from the CCC you right click on the Sonar listing for a menu in it is an item for rolling back. This is also for accessing the early access version.

Try right clicking on the image and choose open in a new tab if your browser supports this. There you should be able to zoom in. You could also use ctrl + mouse wheel to zoom image in the new tab.

So 22.5 is now installed. how do I change the color?
go to preferences / themes. (there's a new tab in preferences next to "Colors") you can change the theme in there to Tungsten, or go back to Mercury (the original) with out a hitch. just hit apply, no need to re start sonar.
