Hello!

First of all... awesome 8-)
I'm used to Freestyler DMX and that is ok, but this is far more intuitive, and the timeline is a BIG+ :)
Going to follow this project closely starting now.

I'm working on a style sheet to get a dark interface on QLC+ 4 and so far I can pretty much change everything
except for the master slider and sliders above the Cue Stack. Also some widget buttons such as the Tap button etc. aren't changing.

I know you can address things with selectors in a directory like structure and even downloaded the source code to look for them but no luck.
Can somebody ( or Mr. Callegari... ? :) ) help me with this ?

Also I'd like to know if there is a way to edit the icons.
Don't get me wrong, the interface is good but I'm very sensitive to interface design and a bit of a minimalist so the multicolor icons and gradients are too much for me ... :P
And of course I will place the sheet on this forum when finished !

Also, if there is any help needed design wise around this project you can PM me, would be awesome to contribute to this cool project!

Some screenshots so far:

Here you see the slider 'problem' between top and bottom sliders, and I also can't seem to change the 'groove' and 'handle' in all sliders.

Hi, some of the QLC+ 4 widgets have hardcoded stylesheets, so they can't be changed with an external style.
Also, icons are embedded in the software binaries, so they can't be changed either unless you rebuild from sources.

Anyway, are you aware that QLC+ 5 is in development and there's already 2 alphas out there ?
See my videos on youtube and release announcements:

Hello mcallegari,

Thanks for your reply, to bad it's not styleable.
I already saw the Alpha versions and that there's a dark interface but I thought to make the style for QLC+4 for use until 5 is in beta or final.

Is 5 getting more styling ability's ? Maybe an option to turn gradients off or change icons ?

Changing color set, maybe. Changing icons, I don't think so.
