There's an extra space before and after the parentheses.

MeterFaderTickDrawer_InactiveTickFontOutlineColor_ Mac (49344,49344,49344,35000)

There's an extra space before "Mac"

I think the important thing is the numbers and not the spaces. The only thing that should/would change are the numbers as I sure wouldn't do a copy & paste.


FWIW I'm not so nuts about the blue he's chosen; I like the green that's stock but then again that's my preference. I'm working on a color calibrated monitor.


A lot of good work going on from individuals that are taking up Avid's slack. I'm surprised some of this stuff wasn't picked up in alpha & beta testing.

I don't know if you're a religious person or not, but I said a prayer for your sister. All I can say is "Amen" that it is not cancer. Surgery is still a big deal, so I'll keep praying for her. God bless.

Religious - yes. My wife likes to say I'm a Jesuit trained Franciscan Buddhist. Jesuit prep school, I love animals and I studied Buddhism at the urging of one of my teachers.



Thank you for the prayers for my sister. As I may have mentioned she's the last close blood relative I have left that I know of.

Excellent news, well the cancer that is, not the needing the surgery

Indeed. Will make celebrating Christmas a bit easier.

First off, I'm glad that things have settled for a while regarding your family health situation. Deep breath!

Regarding dark mode, yah, It feels like they had in-house coders do the changes as opposed to hiring an actual GUI designer. It just feels thrown over (or thrown up )
I'm enjoying being able to mess around with it for sure.

Sending positive thoughts your way, Jack.

Much appreciated. Sad thing is because of covid-19 I can't just fly out to visit her.

With the space the color didn't take effect in PT. Removing the space, the color was exhibited appropriately.

I understand that but what I'm getting at is if you just enter the numbers and NOT do a copy/paste you're okay. I would just enter the numbers. After that's all that really matters.
