Re: Worst Dark Mode Ever
On Windows 10? Can you take a screenshot with some plugins open? I have not been able to get rid of the white bars. Where did you go to do that? The Windows settings only gives me light, dark, and custom. Doesn't let me get as detailed with window settings like Windows 7.

I gave up on it last night. I tried every possible saturation/brightness combo...no real joy. I find it harder to read the screen. So, I went back to classic for now. Hopefully, Avid will add some better options for it in the next update.

I'm still working with making changes to the dark mode file with little success. Trying to decipher what graphic element a specific line pertains to isn't easy. Eventually I should be able to suss it all out; haven't had a good programming challenge in years. Now that we have access to the color settings file I have no doubt some smart person will be putting out custom skins. |

Re: Worst Dark Mode Ever
I tried darkmode for a whole day during proiduction.
I am sorry: I do not like it. For my eyes everything is less visible. The VERY bright Automation/locator lines disturb me. I sometime even could not see where the Track ends. The grid is almost invisible now. In the edit window om the left side the tracks ar missing contrast and so they are not so cleary to read. ...... The old guys here in studio switched back to classic Our 30 Years younger trainee loves it. I think there should be some things adjusted so that everyone likes it. I have no problems with logicx dark mode Ale

Re: Worst Dark Mode Ever
Love dark mode as I said, but it doesn't matter if you are young or old--grid lines have no contrast with the background. When you are working fast you need to see these things clearly.

Re: Worst Dark Mode Ever
There's definitely a difference between Mac and Windows systems for dark mode.
I have an iMac at the office and dark mode is much more acceptable on that. The saturation on my PC at home seems way off and certain graphic elements are much harder to see. Then there's the stupid blue window boarder that Avid cannot seem to get around and remove. The first thing I did when I switched to PC from Mac last year was to change the window boarder color (as seen in the post above). That helps but it's not a total fix. At this point, I can't figure out if it's the Windows OS, my monitor, Pro Tools or a combo platter of all three. At any rate, thumbs up on the Mac. Thumbs down on Windows. tg

Re: ProTools 2020.11
Same here. Love the dark mode and my larger sessions .. especially the ones with heavy VI tracks are loading a lot faster. Also the Optimize Performance at Low Buffer Sizes seems to really be working great.
