I admit that I have never cared about color customization before. It made no difference to me whatsoever. However, after playing around with the way it is implemented in X3, I thinks it is pretty cool. 
 
The way that changing the color of a bus also changes the color of tracks that are feeding it, very nice. The way the colors look and how easy it is to change them.
 
I now do care about this feature and am glad to have it now.

I tried it - I do like the 'follow bus' coloring. Really helps with a lot of tracks.

CAn we add icons the same way as colors "grouping tracks"....?

Icons still work. It bums me out that the bus/track color palette doesn't seem to follow the color schema settings for Track 1-10 foreground though.

I agree, from the point of view that coloring was so wiggy in cubase and reason.  very limited and convoluted.  sonar is firmly 100 steps ahead of the game against those 2 daws.

My question was : can we add 10 same icons to 10 tracks at the same time ?
 
Sorry for not being clear ;)

I tried to load multiple tracks with the same icon by quick grouping then holding ctrl while setting the icon. Sorry it only changes the one track not all the grouped tracks.

tom may i ask you some else :
 
go on a PC ..insert an FX chain , put a plugin in , then set as default and tell me if it set the FX WITH the plugin in (on all PC) or only an Empty fx chain on all PC .?

Can you finally make a decent light color scheme again? (Like in pre-X1 Sonars.)

I can't be the only one to dislike the current trend of dark colors in DAWs?
 
(Well, Sound on Sound's Mark Wherry does comment in a recent review that Logic Pro X is "incredibly dark"...)

You can make tons of different color schemes with the color picker:

I agree, I was at IMSTA this weekend and walked by the Logic room and  I didn't think it was Logic at first.  I thought it was some new DAW.
