Thank you for your ambitious input and sorry for my late reply. I recommend reviewing this section of my guide: Clip Colors I get what you're saying about preferring pastel shades but you also have to be aware of how Cakewalk will tint, fade, or change these colors based on things that are happening in your project. I recommend reviewing this section of my guide: Clip Colors Edited Apby Colin Nicholls And of course, in any project you can then customize the colors on a per-Track and per-Clip basis, which take precedence over any Theme or Color Pref option. Regarding the clip colors, this is another case where the Theme sets the default but the Colors preferences can override. Basically you can load a custom theme, but then any changes from "Normal" under Preferences > Customization > Colors that you've made will overlay or over-ride the Theme elements.Īnd there are some options under this Customization > Colors area that don't have a matching element in a Theme - the Track View Vertical Beat and Vertical Measure line colors for example. I usually run with that option un-checked, as this specific UI element - Track Separator - is not affected by Theme customization, there just isn't an option for it.Īlso, color customization is complicated by an older feature in Cakewalk that interacts/overlays the Theme options. View > Display > Display Track Separators

It's not time-consuming once you know what you are doing but there is a learning curve.įor your specific issue, have you tried changing the option under the Track View menu: Would this be technically possible to achieve? It would make more sense. Is it time-consuming or difficult to learn how to make personal modifications to it with the Theme Editor? I would like to try slightly less dark lines between the tracks in the track view, and also have less saturated colors (I think I'd like pastel) for clips, for example.Įdit: In projects where track colors are set, the clip colors don't match the colors set for the track.
