theme Polar Blue (2021.12 compliant)

[Colin Nicholls]

Happy July 4th, folks.

I'd been using a theme called "Polar Blue (SteveC)" originally created for SONAR Platinum and posted on the old forums by Steve Cocchi. I liked it very much, apart from one or two minor things that I have altered. It also needed one or two changes to bring it up to date for Cakewalk By Bandlab, mostly logos and performance meters.

I reached out to Steve, and with his blessing I am making my updates to "Polar Blue" available to the forum.

Please note that everything that is good about this theme was put there by Steve Cocchi. There are quite a few subtle things in the theme that you might not notice at first, but I think are an improvement.

Enjoy!

Looks a little like Pro Tools. Very cool! I will try it. Thanks for sharing, Colin!

I didn't update this theme. The current version should work fine with 2021.12. It does not customize the Folder Archive indicator button.

I re-saved the theme to remove the change warning in 2021.12. Updated (and renamed) the ZIP file. Enjoy!

I am not able to download the theme. Each time I click on the .zip folder, it opens in another tab and closes without downloading. I would really appreciate some help!

Hmm. I've checked the URL/link and it seems fine. I can download the .ZIP on my Linux computer using Firefox without any issues.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Could you try using curl or wget ?
