I am very happy for you that you like the sonar colors.  Though I'm not sure what that has to do with my top-3 requests of colors, colors, colors.  Nevertheless, I will gratefully concede that you win the internets if you can just show me how to change the colors I've marked below as A, B, C:

Well, seems like I'm about to loose.
Can't help you with B and C, but A is easy: Just click left of the expand folder sign (+) and choose your color.
Sorry for bringing this thread so far OT.
I will close the door after me 

Why do people consider that since color options suit them, they suit everyone?

Ability to re-arrange track/bus order in Console view
 

You can do that in X3 : press ALT and drag the track to where you want it

Ok, thanks, I'll edit my post....

Wait don't leave!  Does that work for you?  I want to change the dark grey background of the entire track view.  I would settle for changing them folder by folder but changing the color of the folder doesn't affect this for me...

I'm still here.
Yes it works for me. But I need to do it folder by folder 

What am I missing?  A setting somewhere?  Here's what mine looks like:

Check "show strip colors" in the color preferences. That wil help

Oh yuck.  Guess I can't win.  I am happy (thank you!) because I finally can get my track background back to the light grey instead of dark grey... but because I colorized all my tracks now it looks like someone threw a bag of skittles at my screen.  I guess I will have to decide which to live with.
 
(I colorized the tracks because the tracks do not follow the order of 1,11,21... 2,12,22.... etc.  If you copy or clone 10 tracks for example they are all the same color which is what I DON'T want.  So I need to find a way around this, or the other thing, or go back to 8.5, or have Sonar update the color customization in X3e or whatever...)

Remember that you can use quick grouping when you need to change several tracks at once. 
Good luck 
 
 
 

If you want all backgrounds to be the same, but not dark grey, then choose your color under track defaults or bus defaults
