Working on this theme. Two boxes , and a text field I'm struggling to locate

It's a shame, part of my reasoning with messing with the Mercury Theme, was to keep the Track an Channel colors options. It seems it's not available to an edited Mercury theme.
 
I hope they are working in a different solution to what was in Mercury, hence the delay

It was going to be red and yellow. But the blue in Mercury was easier to convert the green, so went with. Jeez, it's a mission.
 
Just those two problems to resolve and some handful of some handfuls of PNG too finish, and I'll let you know.

To reduce the number of possibilities, I load Tungsten into the theme editor and look at only the modified entries. The filters are on the theme editor view tab.
 
Sometimes you can get lucky by searching for the name. This works in the case of the "Add Track" buttons especially when looking at only modified entries. There are two "Add Track button" images in the Track View > Add Track Flyout.
 
The track control list drop is a little harder to find. I looked at modified images with more than 2 states in the Track view. I knew it was an image with more than 2 states because the menu changes color when the mouse hovers over it. I found it in Track View > Track Pane and it goes by the unfortunate name of "Edit Filter."

I know it's been said before, but, in my opinion, it is extremely disappointing that you can't create an edited version of the mercury theme without disabling the track strip colors. This is a major oversight. It's just too difficult for me to work on medium to large projects using any theme other than one with full track colors. So, I am forced to use the mercury theme with no chance of editing it. I hope this changes in future updates. It was the only reason I was excited about getting a theme editor. Still love using Sonar, however!

I have to say, the best color scheme would be to get the windows and main areas to be light, like Mercury... all the black bothers me after a while... BUT i like the Tungsten buttons better.

Modifying Mercury removing strip colours must be an oversight. At the moment Theme Editor is very much a Beta product. So much is still wrong. I hope they are working hard on this.
