It turns out that the roon folks probably know what they are doing. And had a mind to making things more flexible… Not saying everyone should go mess around with it just that roon have made it so that change is pretty easy going forward. I changed 4 lines and have a consistent new colour… ![Screenshot 2021-02-11 at 15.25.27](https://roon-community-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/original/3X/1/9/19df049673eae956252be99e7edc07e654f9049d.png) ![Screenshot 2021-02-11 at 15.25.17](https://roon-community-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/original/3X/4/5/452c4e06b88c39e9f9e3c24547bc62d848ce1b6a.png) ![Screenshot 2021-02-11 at 15.25.05](https://roon-community-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/original/3X/4/0/401299ccbe2e64bfffe2207fb41f9aa0c5142818.png) ![Screenshot 2021-02-11 at 15.24.47](https://roon-community-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/original/3X/f/d/fd6622df31f4331bdc0c3c9f953d786bb3dfd91b.jpeg) ---

Change once…applied everywhere (as it should be). Thanks roon! ![Screenshot 2021-02-11 at 16.07.53](https://roon-community-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/original/3X/1/c/1cfa3a76186394763161f46f3f212b22ea322e88.jpeg) ---

So do I… in fact I’ve got it back to the purple now. It was more for folks saying "I hate the purple…I won’t renew my subscription because I hate purple… etc etc… Reality is, roon can change it quickly and easily. If you’re making choices on roon based on the colour… don’t. ---

You won’t please everyone, so it would be best to have a choice of colors, font sizes and the like. ---

Yeah - looking at how it is structured I think they will give a setting in the future which is the accent colour. The point is that they have thought about it - so that is positive regardless of how one feels about the colour. ---

@anon73739233 - Sorry I’m not familiar with this. How did you change the colors of the interface? ---

Sorry for jumping in: Go to C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Roon\Application\100800756\Themes\Dark (this is for windows i do not know how it looks on other systems) and you’ll find a file named **colors**. Edit the colors as you like in that file, save and then restart roon I personally did this (inspired by @anon73739233) just for fun and the next update will probably overwrite the file, so if you see this as a permanent solution for you just keep a copy of your modifications. ---
