Wiper color
Same as above. It's too dull a color as it stands now, but I have no idea where to change it.
Contents/Resources/English.lproj/Images/kGEPartsIconSet_PictID.png contains the top portion of the wiper, but I can't seem find where the rest of the wiper is defined.

If you have a resource editor like Rezilla, DP's custom cursors are found in Contents/Resources/Digital Performer.rsrc. The cursor that you get when you hover over the wiper head is resource #307 in that file.

Yeah, just looked all thru those and nada. I think it's embedded in the dynlibs or frameworks and I've no idea what to do in there.

I think I'm going to reverse one of the design decisions I made with Simple where the window selection works like the stock GUI. If you are not in a Consolidated Window, that dark heavy bar sitting at the top SUCKS. I like my backlit front window idea better. Dark and Gold use this method, and I find it far less annoying.

Maybe the triangle icon on the play button is too tall, but definitely the blending buttons fits the theme big time :)
