Could we see about getting a whole utility section? Having just a single thread for it is a bit much and would be better to be split up.

It's a cakewolk product too, it doesn't belong under the third part 'Software'. Last time we asked for this, I belive Craig said cke were reluctant, because of their plans for the forum. I guessing this was the bakery. Well that seems a flop, and I really don't want to see it there. Just need a Subforum here IMO.

Agreed. A simple subforum would be fantastic as they are easy to navigate.

Kamikaze: Please open a thread to follow up your problem. It really has nothing to do with this thread.

It has everything to do with this thread.
 
You want us to update the themes to account of the latest changes, but I can't identify the latest change in theme editor, to update it.

If I had taken the view that there have only been 13 different members submit Sonar Themes for sharing I would have figured the effort isn't worth doing anything with.

Rather I prefer to find a small way where we can stimulate input from members not only in creating themes but general tips and more utilities to make using Sonar a more pleasant and expansive experience.

If folks want to debate the effectiveness of Sonar or some feature or lack of it please take it to another thread and allow this thread to continue in harmony with the stated theme. Thanks.

If cakewalk want to stimulate interest in Theme Editor, they should respond to issues that caused the stimulation to die out in the first place.

This is a me initiative not a cakewalk one. It was on my own that I got the Software Utilities thread started with the help of Karen (forum host) to implement the sticky thread, then Elffin took over from me when I was away for a year and now that I'm back I've convinced Cakewalk to make me a moderator for this forum so I have the management tools to help do a little more with the software forum than I could as a member. In all of this Elffin continues to be just as big a part as he has for the last year or more.

I'm just generally trying to make a positive contribution to the forum for all the people that have freely given of their time and talents in making programs and utilities, writing up tutorials, doing videos and more recently, themes.

Fair enough, Mudgel, good for you to take on.
 
I've been pondering what to do about my Themes. As it seems that themes based on Tungsten get updated with Mercury elements when new elements are created,  I'm not sure I want to maintain theme as I am not actually using them myself (but a evolution of one). Also I'm not sure anyone actually uses my re-designed Control bar. it does demonstrate the potential of theme editor well though.
 
Delete my purple theme (it was my first attempt and I learnt a lot making it, but it's a bit fugly)
 
Keep
Retro HiFi Mercury (This won't need updating unless that develop a new control bar option)
Retro HiFi Tungsten (This will grow new parts in the Mercury form)
