Custom button colors in GP Selector extension

GP Extensions Using GP Extensions

That works amazingly well! Thank you so much! I’m a little confused about the OSC comment. If I save the gig file with the widget “ON”, the gig opens with the selector open, regardless if OSC checked or not. But I do like to understand how things work. Please help me understand the OSC option. Thank you!!!

The OSC was just a way to ensure the switch is active (and Selector will open), even if you saved the Gig file with the switch off.

Ah! Even if the switch is off! Got it! Thanks very much!

I have all your extensions working great apart from GP selector colored buttons,have put the GPSelectorPrefs.txt in root of extensions but cannot get colors to work…

[Defaults]
ZeroBasedNumbers = false
ImmediateSwitching = true
LargeScrollArea = false
ThickBorders = false
BorderColor = FFE5E5E5
RemoveColorKeywordFromName = false

[Colors]
Clean = FF346573
Crunch = FFBF6509
Lead = FF960303

I’d first recommend you download the version from GitHub, as there’s a chance these ones I’ve pasted directly to the forum are older.

In the readme section, there’s a link to the releases/downloads.

I just wanted to give a shoutout to @rank13 for this amazing extension! I just got a new laptop and set it up and was ready to use it last night for the first time on a gig. I was excited, until just before showtime, when I had discovered that I had forgotten to install this extension. You see, I don’t really use it at home, but on a gig, I had gotten so used to using this extension, that I opted to use my old laptop for the gig. It makes the touchscreen operation of GP useable. Unfortunately, it is impossible to scroll with fingers with any confidence in the original user interface, and the customizable colors make variations/songparts pop out at a quick glance. It is also impossible to quickly switch between PANEL and LIST views in the portrait orientation on a laptop (table mode). The List view button isn’t visible at all!!! In this extension, it is a toggle beween PANEL/LIST. Awesome!!! (I think I will put a feature request in for this…) Much faster and comfortable way of using my touchscreen. It really makes GP a touchscreen friendly software! So, just wanted to say thank you again!!!
