Matthew White Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) My new Theme, 'M-Silk' is now available. I won't say much about this one, just check it out and you'll see more than I can describe here, I just hope the Meters don't put anyone off, I looked at the Meter Windows for both Track and Console view and thought, 'can I do something different with them for this Theme?', then had the idea of doing away with them altogether and making the unlit segments visible as a marker of where they are, not that we don't know, just that leaving the area blank felt a bit extreme. Enjoy! Free Download Here... 'M-Silk' Cakewalk Theme A combined total of around 150 hours, sometimes much more, goes in to creating each Theme I make, then there's more time spent to update them whenever BandLab makes changes or additions to the Cakewalk GUI to ensure any changed or new items display correctly and match the Theme, I also don't make all these Themes for myself, it's more of a hobby and to share the end results with the Cakewalk Community for their use and enjoyment at no charge, Any Tips/Donations via the following link for my time and efforts in creating and updating these are greatly appreciated, however small. Thank You! ❤️https://www.paypal.me/MatthewJohnWhite Edited February 7, 2023 by Matthew White Text Edit 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjoens Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Some nice ideas here. My theme has been a very slow 6 month work in progress & will be completed probably never. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew White Posted July 1, 2021 Author Share Posted July 1, 2021 Silly me forgot to check the grid lines on the 'Piano Roll View' and just found the major rules were barely distinguishable from the beat rules, if this affects you, please download again as I have fixed the issue. ?

sjoens Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 It seems you've also been dabbling a bit into "string" theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that because the PRV grid lines look like strings or about something else? I didn't even know what string theory was until I just watched a video about it and now I'm wondering how it applies to my theme lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 lol. It was a pun referring to the italicized track numbers in your screens shots. Unless you photoshopped them, the only way I know to do that is edit the String line buried in the TTSRES file. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing this may have been changed in a Cakewalk update as they look like that in all themes including Tungsten and Mercury yet the screenshots of these you see when you select the Theme show non-italic numbers, unless something weird has happened to my system. ?♂️ EDIT: Sussed it! The track view numbers are following font settings on my PC, I use Winaero Tweaker and have the font 'Cambria' Italic selected for everything other than system font.

sjoens Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 ... that was my 2nd guess. Still odd since each text line is assigned a font in TTSRES.dll. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Possible that track numbers missed the TTSRES list and appear to be Windows fonts.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew White Posted July 2, 2021 Author Share Posted July 2, 2021 I prefer them that way and wish that all the other Cakewalk text would follow my font settings, I think it would be good to have a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew White Posted December 17, 2021 Author Share Posted December 17, 2021 Now updated for the change made in the 2021.12 release of Cakewalk, The 'Archive' button was changed in this version so would display incorrectly (shows half the button) if you're using this version of Cakewalk with a Theme which hasn't been updated for it.
