I just wanted to thank Meng and BandLab for improving the PRV!!!  I installed the new Cakewalk by BandLab and I like what I see.  I especially like that I have no problem seeing PRV vertical grid lines of less than 1/4 note.  With Sonar Platinum I was having a hard time seeing grid lines of 1/8,1/16 etc. and that was making it kind of challenging to correct timing on some of my recordings.  I look forward with excitement to what BandLab does next!  I'm putting a Tip in the Tip jar for a Cakewalk T-shirt and Coffee mug in appreciation!!!
 
Thanks BandLab!!!!

What version of SPlat had you been on previously?
Are you saying that there have been coding changes since 2017.10 (23.10.0)?

I have long ached from spending too many hours staring at the white screen. The new darker screen is far easier on my eyes!

There are. The most visible (not including theme changes) is the "Replace From Track Template" feature.

Ah...I had failed to fully read the first message of the "free" thread.  I was expecting that they had merely made the existing code free.

Noel offers a little more about this release here

I also greatly prefer the dark theme. The white PRV always felt odd to me in the Tungsten theme since the other views were dark. For those who prefer the lighter look just switch back to Mercury.

From another post (i think it was from scook?) they can rename the tungsten theme from Splat and copy it to the new themes folder. Then select it.

I am grateful for the change to dark. Thanks Noel!

So, what do you change in Theme Editor to get the dark PRV background?
I'm using a edited "Mercsten" "Tuncury" combination theme - but I don't see anything obvious under the piano roll view settings.
 

Need to wait for the new theme editor
or
you could try copying the new tungsten into the old user theme folder (make sure to change the extension to .sth), open it in the old theme editor and import the changes from "Mercsten" or "Tuncury", save and copy the new theme to the new user theme folder.
I got this part wrong. Instead of copying Tungsten, the CbB resource files need to be in the Platinum program folder so the editor can pick up the new Mercury theme. Then editing Tungsten will show the new changed from Mercury which could be applied to the user themes. Any one trying this may want to save copies of the Platinum resource files so they can be restored easily. Personally, I have not tried this and would rather wait for the updated theme editor.
