Possible to create custom schemes?

I have R20 of Broadcast.  In Preferences, Under Interface, one can set the scheme to Dark or Light.  I also though adjusted some of the Scheme Colors settings to match Dark Mode under macOS a bit better.

However, I don’t see a method of saving such changes as a custom scheme.  Sometimes it’s nice to be able to switch between a custom preset and back to the original factory settings.  I can switch back to the factory settings, but that involves deleting files in preferences.

Hi Ricky Sharp,

So far I can see, it feels like a global setting. (Perhaps ask the support if there is an option)

I tried to “record” a Python script (Script Log), but the change of individual interface colors is not given. The dark or Light scheme can be “recorded” and then used with a short cut. But If I get your request correctly, you want more than that.

Sorry, no idea how to get that.

Besides: you might suggest an option of Multi User Preference. (Which is perhaps the closest to what you need to get there.)

All the best

No problem, Dr. Sassi. I may try a macOS Automator script perhaps to move files in and out of the Preferences folder.  But, this is not crucial at all to my workflow.

Fingers crossed, that will do the trick, Ricky Sharp.

I’m not certain in this point, so take it as “brainstorming”, but perhaps environment variables might help?

My best wishes.
