If you're using css you might just be able to swap out style sheets or component classes.

or the colour variable maybe

@ILIAM Grab all the elements you want to change, put them in arrays and apply setAttribute(Colours, Opacity) to them by saving "themes" as value strings in a combobox list or something. I did this exactly in one of my plugins already. You can script, predetermined colour schemes and background images and have them set by buttons or combobox items list. You can divide up your arrays by component type so you can separate what you're changing ie, all background panels go dark, but text goes opposite an vice versa. Good luck! This is the fun part. haha.

Are we good like this?

Content.makeFrontInterface(300, 100);

const var Panels = [Content.getComponent("Panel1"),
                    Content.getComponent("Panel2")];


const var Labels = [Content.getComponent("Label1"),
                    Content.getComponent("Label2")];



const var ThemeSwitch = Content.getComponent("ThemeSwitch");

inline function onThemeSwitchControl(component, value)
{
	local col = value ? 0xFFFFFFFF : 0xFF000000;
	local Invcol = value ? 0xFF000000 : 0xFFFFFFFF;


    //Panels
	for (i = 0; i < Panels.length; i++) 
	{
		Panels[i].set("itemColour", col);
		Panels[i].set("itemColour2", col);
		Panels[i].repaint();
	}
	
	
	//Labels
	for (i = 0; i < Labels.length; i++) 
	{
		Labels[i].set("bgColour", Invcol);
		Labels[i].set("textColour", col);
	}
	
};

Content.getComponent("ThemeSwitch").setControlCallback(onThemeSwitchControl);

@ILIAM without opening the snippet, looks good to me. Is it working? I myself use .sendRepaintMessage(); unless its real time. Also, I think 'for in' loops works too but its your preference.

[ILIAM]

@Chazrox Thanks man
Im working on a big project, and Lots of Painting.

var BgColour = [];

then inside an inline, Using
if value = BgColour= Colour.Black
else
BgColour= Colour.White

And Using BgColour on All Compnents and Sending Repaint message?

Is This safe?

[ILIAM]

@Chazrox and One thing
sendRepaintMessage() works on Laf and All components? Panels?

Example:
AllPanels[i].sendRepaintMessage();
AllKnons[i].sendRepaintMessage()

It works like this?

Sending Repaint message?

Probably don't need this for most components - test it though.

Use const instead of var

[Chazrox]

@ILIAM @d-healey I just double checked this just because.

and .sendRepaintMessage(); works for everything. Looks to be so in the api list.

.repaint(); // asynchronous
.repaintImmediately(); // synchronous / real time
.sendRepaintMessage(); // asynchronous

[ILIAM]

@d-healey @Chazrox Thank you Guys, Will try and report back
