Live 10 Theme Editor

Post by analogcabin » Fri Feb 09, 2018 7:07 pm

It would be very nice to be able to edit themes without having to use a plain text editor.
Or at least have a list of what each button value name is.
I only found one fella trying to explain this here:

This helped, but wow..... slow going.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Thanks for making this :) ! (If anyone's in doubt, running a binary from a fellow just registered here and with one single post: don't worry, he's legit. It's LawrenceF, a dude who, among other things, occasionally codes cool utilities for DAWs, and mostly frequents the Studio One and KVR forums: https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopi ... 5#p7008163 )

Yeah, it's not really attractive when someone posts a tool people would really like to use, with no information or introduction or details of any kind and no previous posts on the forums. Always seems a bit suss.

Might wait and see what the consensus is but personally the new Dark theme has everything I want.

Just check the KVR thread linked above if in doubt.

Nah, not interested in spending my time plugging away at themes, Dark theme in L10 is everything I want.

Still very strange to come and post a direct binary download without even linking to the KVR forum, or using the same name or posting any info about it at all. I have no idea who LawrenceF is anyway, just because he has some posts on a forum doesn't mean the code is safe. There is no Git for me to confirm or anything so will leave it to some other lucky punter to try.

Yeah, that's perfectly reasonable, of course :). Knowing Lawrence's helpful persona on more than one forum for several years (and knowing his contributions) I naturally already used the editor, and now have a custom theme exactly to my personal liking, so you can count myself as one vote, as in, one lucky punter who tried it, haha.

Sorry guys. I didn't feel the need to explain what it does as the guy who opened the thread kinda explained why it exists with his comment.

Secondly, me saying "Hi, I'm Joe Blow... I want to share this.", doesn't mean that an *.exe is safe. Even saying that I could still have bad intentions if I were a scoundrel so I'd assume anyone concerned might check anything like that with AV (false positives may come from the obfuscation though, I should not have obfuscated it since I posted the source anyway, habit). There's nothing in it that does anything but read and write *.ask files. If anyone wants the source code, just ask (no pun intended).

The read and write source code is on GitHub, I've not updated it there yet. Make your own if you're concerned about the exe. https://github.com/ExpressMix/ableton_1 ... ce_code.vb

At any rate, I have no ego about this kinda thing so I didn't post it saying ... "Hey guys, here's something great from me because I'm great!" or some other such nonsense looking for praise from a community that I don't even belong to. I just posted an image of the thing and a link. If anyone finds it useful, great. If not, also great.

Yeah, I can't get it to work either. When I try to run the app, I get a message like, "This app can't be run, move it to the trash."

For whatever reason, the App has a stop-sign icon through it and "won't let me run on this version of MacOS" -- High Sierra.
