yea we have the color of the waveform, but wouldn't something like this be better and easier on the eyes and easier to organize?
 
I should add:  i know you can do this manually for each clip in a track - but how about automatically change the background color to follow the track color instead of leaving it black?? (see below).
 

Just FYI, if you still have X2, you can set background colors there and import them.

oh interesting.  I don't have it anymore.   Is it possible someone can export their X2 color preference file and post it here?  I can probably just find the lines for clip background and copy it into my prefs. 
 
Thanks for the good info!

You already posted the same request (at least once):

(Got confused by merged threads)
Sorry.

that is correct, why not?  if it keeps getting ignored, I will post again, no?
it's not like im doing it once a week or even once a month.  i give it several months.
 
i have problems seeing color to begin with.  when i work in my friends DAW (Logic), it is MUCH easier for me to see the clips.

in Sonar I am ALWAYS having to highlight all my clips and then change the backing color.  its annoying and its a feature that the product USED to have... it annoys me that they took it away.  

Please do not post the same request more than once. Refer to the Features & Ideas section of http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/3096121.

Scook, shouldn't this merged thread be merged to the thread I pointed to in post #10?

Really wish we could have similar look in Sonar...
