Grem Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Has anyone went with the new '13' update? They have a new 'Look' and am wondering how everyone is liking it? It seems they have decided to use /Sliders, Buttons, and knobs all together in the new 'Look'. With that bright color scheme that everyone seems to be moving to. And only some of the alternate skins work with it. They are saying that the skins that don't work ain't high on the priority list of things that will get fixed. To me this means "You will take it and like it!" From the Melda 13 Release Notes page: There's a new style (Neon), which is enforced as default style and everything is designed to work well with this style "out of the box". This includes everything from basic components to various graphs and analyzers. Previous style settings are ignored now. If you feel the need to get your style settings back, it is not recommended, but you can hack the engine by going to the user settings folder (where the presets are) and copy StyleSettingsV11.cfg to StyleSettingsV13.cfg in proper folders. Note that other styles may not work that well compared to Neon. While we are going to slowly improve other styles as well, it has a low priority. Neon is the new "look" of Melda plugins.

I'm pretty neutral to it to be honest. I never really liked the look of Melda GUI's, apart from the fact that they're all consistent, but I guess they're ok once you get used to them. I guess I need to get used to this one now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grem Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 @msmcleod Yeah I am going to get use to it too, eventually!! @Piotr How did you get the dark look? What skin is that? Carbonite? (That's the one I use. ) How well does it work? I am thinking and hoping I can use the Carbonite skin and not fiddle around with the knobs and sliders and I maybe ok.

That looks like the default style to me, which is the one I'm using. Just go into settings and click Default Style: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grem Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) What I was looking at was a bright green color that I thought was the default. Let me make sure I am getting this right. Will be back!! Will have to wait till I get home tonight to update and check it out. But on the home page all the plugins are that same color your showing Marc. If it's that color, I got no beef. But if it's that bright ***** green color I was looking at, (and I can't find it again!) IDK 'bout that! It was a fuglycolor!! I really like Melda plugins! I was thinking " No fella's not that color as your default!!" : ) Edited June 9, 2019 by Grem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if you noticed Lee, but I was thinking that the new 'Look' was a bright green color. I am thinking I'm wrong in this, according to what the others have posted and what I see on Melda page. But I am correct in that they have changed it and you will like it!! : ) JK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, as msmcleod mentioned, it is just default neon: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mettelus Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I am pretty neutral to it all as well. One of the bigger complaints by new users has been curb appeal, and it is definitely getting attention now. I expect this to evolve similar to how the theme editor in CbB did. I am pretty tolerant of growing pains; the stagnant issues are what tend to bother me. Melda has been pumping out updates in rapid succession in the past couple of years, and they are pretty receptive to user feedback IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grem Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Agree with you Mike. Melda is a great company. And think their plugins are some of the best bang for buck out there. I just thought that they changed the default color to this bright green, which threw me for a loop as it was so unlike them!! I am so glad I was wrong.
