Description:
Establish a consistent and transparent color logic throughout Loopy Pro to improve usability, visual clarity, and workflow efficiency—especially in complex projects.
Problem:
Currently, the way colors are used in Loopy Pro can be inconsistent across different UI elements and functions (e.g. clip colors, widget color borders, group colors). This inconsistency can lead to confusion, especially in live performance settings or when using color as a key organizational tool. For users who rely heavily on color to navigate their sessions, this lack of coherence hinders speed and accuracy.
Proposed Solution:
  • Define a clear system that links color assignments across all components (clips, groups, widgets, plugin labels, etc.)
  • Ensure all color-linked items visually reflect that link in a unified way
  • Provide a global setting or option for how color is interpreted visually (e.g. background, border, text)
  • Optionally allow users to customize or override default color behaviors if needed
Benefits:
  • Improves visual orientation and reduces mistakes in live scenarios
  • Enables faster identification of clip functions, groups, and effects
  • Enhances user experience through predictability and visual clarity
  • Supports users who build large or color-coded templates for performance or production
