Basics of Theme Editing

Are themes compatible across versions ? 

I've gone back to a previous version of Reaper, and wondered if I will have any hidden problems transferring themes ? ARP.

Try making a new folder in 'REAPER/ColorThemes' called 'My-Mix-N-Match'. Into it, copy images from another theme, or a number of other themes, or images from another theme that you have edited with a bitmap editor like *. Then go to the "Theme requests Images' dropdown and select 'My-Mix-N-Match' as your images folder. Save your theme under a new name, and hit OK.

No, everything in the first post is still correct. Try going through the steps one by one and see if you've done one slightly differently or missed one out. If you'd like to post (or PM me) a screenshot of what you see, an explorer view of your 'ColorThemes' folder, and of your Options > Preferences > Appearance > Color Theme, I may be able to spot something.

Can't find Color Theme page 

Customised Mixer 

Any chance you could help me on how to remove the record monitoring button from the mixer/track view ?

How do THIS????? 

I would like for the media files(not the audio files images) to be plain white with the audio images being black. I do not want the items to change color when I select them(I have the bar function activated for item selection) how do I do this? I would also like for the background that the audio files are in to be white as well. all of the grey makes it very hard for me to "SEE" the precise edit spots for my drum editing. I have been monkeying with this for a few months now and can't get it to color up the way I would like. I think it might be something along the lines of having too many colors in the theme as the same color. I just want a very plain and stripped down look to reaper(I have this set up the same way in nuendo so I am very used to the white on black look in the project window). Thanks in advance for the help!!! Love and Metal Curran

are the sticky posts in the "themes" forum still relevant under v4-walter? if not, maybe they should be un-stickied? just a thought...
