There is no place as such; it's all been by private email.

Re: Dark Theme in Pro Tools 2020.11
Yesterday I opened 2020.11 on a late 2015 Retina iMac 27" just to show my friend how ugly the dark mode was, and to me it didn't look as bad as on my non retina iMac 27" 2011. Not sure whats going on...confuzzd..

Re: Dark Theme in Pro Tools 2020.11
My standard questions in these cases is: have you adjusted the saturation & brightness in PT? Have you adjusted the contrast & brightness on your computer monitor? Those can make a HUGE difference.

Re: Dark Theme in Pro Tools 2020.11
I tried many different settings to even out the high contrast mode..sorry dark theme :O A lot of white elements pops out like stars in the sky on a pitch black night...
There's no question this dark mode needs refinement before I can use it. I don't mind using classic while this gets some polish, the only thing that bothers me is the Avid keeps raising the fee's without delivering the goods. It just feels sloppy. |

Re: Dark Theme in Pro Tools 2020.11
Its popping so hard all over the place and I haven't taken the time to analyzed whats so annoying. Well its mostly text, right, but those white glowing things is everywhere, * freeze, sends a,b,c,e.. M, S, I, clip names etc :) It's the high contrast thats the problem I guess. You got white and then you got everything else just too dark. Coal n Ash. I don't know what to do.. I'm not a designer, I just can't work with nor like what I see.

Dark mode is what's making me update from 2019.6 and make do with the MIDI event list bugs in a different way. Sure there are other things that are updated from 2019.6 like track folders I would have liked to use but passed up on the earlier updates. Have you looked at the mods I made to the file and how things look now? They're in earlier posts by K Roche and I. Am I saying it's perfect even with the file changes? No. But it's easier to work with than the stock dark mode. Note that I'm talking about working on a Mac so can't speak to the Windows side of things. |

Re: Dark Theme in Pro Tools 2020.11
Cool! I'll try to find that edit and try it now! I had a look at the .txt myself and started googling for hexadecimal decimal converter and... gave up :) Sooo many rows of codes...
I'll report back when I've tried it out! |

Re: Dark Theme in Pro Tools 2020.11
Sussing the hex codes drove me nuts until I figured out how to use the OSX color sync utility set to work with 16 bit to check the colors I wanted. Open that up, set the selector on the lower left to 16 bit and use the three sliders to setup your colors. Then change the numbers in the particular dark mode file line you want to change. You'll actually see four sets of numbers per lien with the fourth being opacity with 65535 being no transparency to whatever layer is below.
