Is more color flexibility in the works - question for great Cakewalk people

I just want to know if over the next year there is any effort being made to provide more color options.  For instance to lock in colors, foreground and background for a whole track - so that when I record a new clip on it I do not have to keep on changing the colors.
 
If this is not a high priority I understand.  You have a lot on your plate (a whole cake :)
 
Seriously, I just want to know.  I don't expect that your staff can work on everything at once.  If this is a low priority, please just say so.  It is a high one for me, but I will stick around anyway because I do like the product and I really respect the Cakewalk people, and that is important when I decide where my money goes.

Keep an eye out at Sonarmods for Duckbar 2015

I would dearly like to be able to set the clip background color on the track level. I simply cannot be bothered to color clips individually and I can't imagine that many people would even have a need for multiple clip colors within a single track. It seems like the kind of thing which would be (on the surface) quite straightforward to implement, so I'm wondering if there's some kind of weird behind-the-scenes technical reason why it's not an option. 

I agree with what has been said so far and would like to echo that I would like to be able to use deep, rich colours, not just on the side edge (in Track View) or bottom edge (in Console View). I'm not a pastel or greyish grey fan. Sorry to nag, but I wish for this every time I open Sonar. 
 
After all, people vary. Some likely prefer a quiet, non-intrusive (engineer-serious-business-this-is-not-a-toy) atmosphere so that they are not distracted visually and can concentrate on the task at hand.
 
Others long for the freedom and tools to make their visual environment as creative and inspiring as possible, even if others find their taste in colour combinations questionable. :)
 
The great news is: Giving the second group what they want won't deprive the first group of a single thing. Everyone can work in the environment that satisfies him or her.
 
Thanks for listening.
 
 
 

Duckbar 2015 beta is out.

Here is a before and after but bear in mind I only used "Yellowstone" theme and that this is still a beta.

Gregmang - do the clips on one track remain the track selected color even if recording a new one on that track?
THANKS.

Thanks for the Duckbar 2015 heads up.  When I launched the new Sonar I just went "blech", it temporarily shot down my enthusiasm.  My guess is we're still in the minority of Sonar users.

I will use an Austin Powers' qutoe to answer:
 
Austin Powers: Who does Number Two work for? Who does Number Two work for?
Cowboy: Yeah, that's it! You show that turd who's boss.

Well they really haven't since X1 so....

Don't get me wrong - I've been a user since Pro Audio days.  However since X1 color customizations have basically ground to a halt.

Hello Cakewalk people.  Any chance you can tell us whether this is being worked on, or whether it is not important.
Either way, just want to know.
THANKS,
I am bumping this because maybe it is lost in the threads.

I'd certainly like to see a response from Cakewalk as to their thinking behind the current color customization functionality. I'm absolutely loving Platinum and it's by far and away the best version of Sonar to date, but I have to admit when I'm watching video tutorials which use certain other DAW's and I see their pretty color coded clips it does make me a little jealous. Give us the option to set a per-track clip background color and I will be happy as a pig in the proverbial. My brain responds very well to color in terms of organization and grouping, yet I find that when I look at an overview of my project in the clips pane, the coloring coding of the clip data isn't strong enough. I really need the clip backgrounds to be colored but it's just too much trouble to do this on a per-clip basis.
