Rumor goes that Ardour supports a dark and light theme. Google and Ardour.org says there’s an option to change the theme under Window->Theme manager - but for some reasons, I can’t find it.
I run Ardour under Kubuntu with Polish language, but nevertheless, no theme option is visible to me.
Is the light theme still available? And if yes, can someone provide me with a screenshot with the menu option? ;).
There is no light theme anymore. Nobody volunteered to maintain it as we changed the way things were drawn. It became defunct more than a year ago. It would be great to see it return, but someone would need to step up and do the required work (which is not documented).
Hi, Wojtek_U!
I use KXStudio 14.04, Ardour 4.7
Few weeks ago I found in my “home folder” some special hidden folder: “.config/ardour4”. Here I fond the file: “my-dark.colors”. This file Ardour makes, when you do some color changes in “Preferences”. I spend rather long time to get satisfactory colors (for my test) and finely decided to copy the file “my-dark.colors” in another folder (to make backup file:)). Next time, when I reinstalled the OS, I had made just few changes in “Preferences”, came in folder “.config/ardour4”, and replaced the new file for my “backup file”. Here you can take print-screen of my theme:
