new menu template for themes

[oskari]

[mute]

the color coding is very similar to how i've had my index menu setup for almost 2 years, but i never released it because I could never properly override the insert effect (+) menu on the connection arrows.

very very nice. look forward to f'ing with this.

here's my old ones.,

@mute : that color coding on the connection lines is a pretty good idea !
actually you should be able to override the colors in the connection dialog box using conditions on the machinetype.
(guess you tried that already )
could you post the xaml?

I had to fix it in code. It will work in the next build.

I forgot to enable ClearType.

For some reason that really reminds me of Amiga Workbench ...

Ooh boy, I just took a peek at MVResources.xaml to see if I could adapt some of that code to use on my theme but I might be punching a little above my weight this time

But yeah, it looks well nice man !

[oskari]

The menu is now in it's own file so it's easier to use.

[strobotone]

oskari, you are just awesome.

- attributes in the machine context menu
- latency compensation and new-machine-by-typing dialogs rewritten in wpf

...more consistency coming up.

small suggestion: it would be cool if the context menus stayed open until you click on the machine view background. that way you can change multiple things (like attributes etc) at once without always going into it again..

[oskari]

Support for MenuItem.StaysOpenOnClick.

Thanks a lot Oskari once again, especially for putting the main thing in its own menu folder, as I want to keep my own theme up to date like mcbpete does and my skills are even a little little bit smaller.

The menu stays open only for the attributes, would it make sense for other parts like the upper section (Mute, Solo, Oversample, Wireless) or Midi input channel?

It looks really cool, I like it a lot.

[strobotone]

it really helps to make things more consistent themewise.
looks like i missed something since checkboxes for all options are shown in the custom theme.

[strobotone]

never mind. double declared a style in two different xaml files.

Yes, this fits in your theme much better. I might change the menu in the default theme too.

[mcbpete]

Did exactly the same on mine too - took me ages to spot that

[strobotone]

i wish i could also do that to the vertical sequencer

[Klangkulisse]

Oops, I did not realise this until now.
Could you spot the double declared style?
As my theme relies on some main parts of yours, it should be the same fault ...

check for duplicate <Style x:Key="ContextMenuItemStyle">
