Roon 1.8 colour purple

[Alex_Manders]

Roon 1.8 is great but please change the colour purple

[Jack_Bolton]

What’s wrong with purple? Stands out at least.

I think to have a selection of colours would be preferable as I for one, love the Mauve…

Love it, modern and vibrant.

Check this thread:

Showcase your 1.8 themes

There are quite a few modded themes being posted, in various different threads, so I though it might be a good idea to start a new one where we can gather them together and share ideas. I’ve included my recent efforts below - a set of largely monochromatic themes with a muted accent colour. I’ve also included a Dropbox download link if anyone is interested in grabbing them. Be warned, modding the theme files is not a supported feature, so proceed at your peril. I would also suggest that you do…

I like the purple but it would be sensible to give users the ability to change the palate.

Yes, I’d be much rather have Roon add a “color picker” than deal with side-loading user-made alternatives. Good intentions and unpredictable results…

I love purple - one of my favourite colours

Yes, it is not a question of THE purple or whatever other only color the interface would be based on, but that the UI would be more usable with a selection of colors. For example, I can barely notice if an album is unidentified, as it is written in the same font and color as the format, date added, etc (not purple in this case )

Hmm, same as the purported “museum look” this 1.8 was hoping to achieve, you have to closely look at the labels to identify the artwork unless you know the piece and/or style.
