  • Theme color options and the default theme

    From Embalmed@21:4/166 to All on Mon Feb 17 17:11:33 2020
    So at least in my version of Mystic it seems that all of the menus are color hardcoded 07 or whatever. And then there are theme color options 1-0.
    It seems to me like the default theme should be using the T1-0 colors instead of being hardcoded so that editing most of the default colors would be as simple as changing the theme colors. We can search and replace through the files and do this ourselves but I wondered if anyone else has done this
    already :)

    I don't know of anyone who has made and released themes that key off of the theme colors, but that might not be a bad idea for the default installtion to do that in the future.

    The newer theme system in A44+ is much more friendly when it comes to
    creating and sharing themes so hopefully some people will make some in the future!

    I've done that type of thing before but it was for my own personal use.
