Q Light Controller+

Hi,

first at all, I'm very happy that the development of this fantastic software continus and also very impressed about the new features.
Now to my question: where are the icons located?
The reason: a friend of mine is visibly impaired and uses under ubuntu the "highcontrast inverse" theme, which works fine with QLC+. Only the icons are in same cases not relay good visible, so i want to change the icon set with one which fits better to the inverse theme, how can I realize that?

Regards Bernd

Hi, I'm afraid the icons are bundled into a binary library, so it's not possible to change them unless you recompile QLC+ from sources.
Sorry

Thanks a lot for the very quick reply.
Puuh, o.k. then I'll try to compile it - its a long time ago that I had to compile a software ...

Regards Bernd

I am sorry I cannot help you in a short time.
The easiest way to compile QLC+ is on Ubuntu Linux. In Windows and OSX might be a bit harder.
Here's the info to build QLC:
http://qlc.sourceforge.net/development.shtml

For QLC+ you just need to add libmad-dev and libsndfile-dev
Otherwise if you contact me on my email address I will see what I can do in my spare time.

Always willing to help.

Hi Massimo,

no need to waste your spare time, I managed it to compile it and it works fine.

One idea at this moment:
The icons we use for the dark background is the original iconset, only reworked a little from a professional grafic-designer (a good friend of mine) to fit the needs of the dark background and/or visibly impaired people.

While testing the icons I noticed, there is only a little "fine-tuning" necessary and we can have a icon-set which is accesible even ond light backgrounds as also on dark backgrounds.

If you're interested in this I could initiate work session with my friend to find the best look of the icons for "both worlds".

Hope you understand my "excellent" english
For questions even free feel to contact me via my private email address.
