RBH Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I have an issue in the track view when editing clips fade. It's very difficult to re-grab a fade node because the angled line is dark against the dark waveform background. It becomes white when zoomed close - but at nominal zoom level it's pretty much invisible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starship Krupa Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I hear ya. I have trouble with the contrasty-ness myself and usually run with a user-created theme and tuned colors. I'll assume that you've explored the excellent user-created themes? If not, there are some amazing ones available. Also, the people in the Themes sub forum are helpful when it comes to things like tuning color settings. https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/forum/31-ui-themes/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercury seems to have the least number of issues for me so I circled back to it. I have the theme editor and maybe I should have another go at tuning just this one little issue. My experience has been to fix one thing and create 3 new problems though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starship Krupa Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Themesmanship can be a tricky business. You can literally fix one thing and create 3 problems because when you adjust one single color, for instance, it may adjust the color in 4 locations, and those locations may not seem to have much to do with each other. I recently saw someone asking about which color to change for a text label, and it turned out to be the same color as for some slider controls in the Track View. The tool was supposed to be in-house only originally, so there's some roughness around its edges. Wonderful thing to have, I must say, and my candidate for Cakewalk's most underrated feature.

I use Mercury, and can't replicate that behavior. For me the fade line remains white against a dark, unselected clip and black against a light, selected clip at all zoom levels. I'm guessing that what you're seeing is a characteristic of your particular combination of video monitor and display resolution/scaling.

RBH Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) I do have a few other unrelated graphics issues that crop up from time to time. I'm going to chock it up to a newerish graphics card on an old computer at this point. Thanks for confirming the appropriate behavior.
