Thanks to this thread I finally got around to messing with my FX rack colors and now my Platinum them looks even  more like my everyday theme. Thanks! It's getting there.
 
I sure hope we can edit the horizontal slider colors and text after the next Theme Editor update. Having that ability will be a big step forward.
 

 
 


Gotta say this looks pretty great. Hope you'll be able to share it with us when it's done!


you can download all the user created themes here:

This one might be in there (Listed as Gold).

I use it to make small tweaks to existing themes. I think it's extremely flexible and offers all sorts of options for users. Like all powerful software, it has a steep learning curve but full of options. If you want quick results, download a theme created by some of the users. If you want to dive in, be prepared to put in some effort!  I applaud Cakewalk for offering such flexibility. I remember reading complaints in this forum about the need to customize colors a few years back like Sonar 8.5. Well I'm my opinion, Cakewalk certainly delivered!

Can anyone tell me what name to look for when i am trying to use Theme Editor to edit the colour of the text within the Browser box, time display and the units inside the loop module, etc? I would be tearing my hair out if I had any....

Having the option is really awesome and I plan to explore but to busy with recording and mixing music at the moment!

I made my own theme(you can check it out in the imgur link below), nothing so fancy but useful and easy on my eyes, i love this feature i will dig on it more deep in the future.

I checked it, figured it was going time consuming to custom made one, have yet to get convinçed with the proposed themes. in the end the good old theme, tungsten i think, just feel goog AND it gives you the flexibilty to color the console strips/tracks which I really prefer.

My 2 cents

I like the Polar one, but I had to make little tweaks so I could read the processors and know how hot they get as I play since Rapture only goes on one core.

The Grim
..., and scook's pro channel module skins



Where do you get these? Are they just in the tuncury themes? Or are they seperate?
(I don't see anything on the resources page)


Elffin has not to add them to the page.
They are on my SONAR page https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vSWylK1f9f8Rw0b0J0Ob_KzK6ELgjo9YXk2QPt4TdUHSOJoFUNFkRaW73OIlgOlkCNJw4OEdSUfaUm3/pub
There is an update the CA-2A pending. the new image is uploaded
 


Scook, they're your themes of course but it would be good if we could keep all of them in one place, don't you think? Any other suggestion! Or is there a typo and perhaps you mean ""elfin is "yet" to .......""

After 2 years it's amazing how many people here don't know about the Software thread that attempts to catalog all the forumites' programs, themes and utilities.

I PM Elffin every time my themes are updated. I sent a request to have the SONAR Resources and Utilities page updated last November to handle changes made for SONAR 2017.11. The post on the thread was a reminder and provided a way for users to access the changes while waiting for the page to update. I am concerned that updates are not made in a timely manner. If you are suggesting that I discontinue maintaining my own software on my own website, that is not going to happen.

Not at all. Way giant misunderstanding there. Am surprised you would think that. Nonetheless

You wrote "elfin has not to add them to the page." It reads to me as if you didn't want to have your themes added to the page hence my request to clarify.

I too am concerned that updates are not made in a timely manner and Elffin has given me access to his Box upload folder but of course I can't update post#1 of the thread which is what would be more beneficial. Any suggestions on that front are welcome.
