Reaper, the only DAW with annoying track color selection.

I might of missed something but you can set your own custom colours so you can have any colour you want (or was that a joke) ;) only read a bit of the thread too tired. This could also be an sws extension thing but I'm sure you can have custom colours saved.

+++1 from me too.

I wonder if any of the developers have seen and studied the mock-up. I'd like to at least hear what one of them thinks, regardless of weather or not it gets implemented,..

Maybe it's too complex an idea to prioritize before other stuff at this time. Give it another good look and post it in the Issue Tracker if you think it'll be the best colour changing idea.

i've never understood how to customize the colors. I tried once, failed miserable, then left it alone forever. A more comprehensive color system would be nice but I can see how it wouldn't be top priority.

This seems like over kill to select a color for a track. right click click select custom track color select the color click ok

"everybody wants this I guess" ...you guessed wrong :P

-1 to make track color selection less annoying. devs, buy some medical marijuana or some nice wine with all those man hours instead!

It's not a non issue. OP's way of doing it is much more convenient, IMHO.

Actually, I think the simplest would be a small color palette that is neatly tucked somewhere in the GUI like up top or in the docker. Just click one of the colors and whatever is highlighted turns that color. Put a "Random" button right beside it to choose a random color for the selected item(s), ctrl+click the random button and the pallette itself loads with a new set of random colors. You can right-click any color (pops up color chooser) to change it manually. Karbo
