This enhancement will make coloring tracks and items much easier! No need to scroll through the right-click context menu, just have this toolbar open at all times (or call it via keypress at your mouse cursor, if you will!) and it will work on the current track and/or item selection, it's context sensitive!

Here's how to do it. NO PYTHON NEEDED ANYMORE! You only have to have SWS extensions installed!
- Download the attached ZIP file.
- Unzip it in the folder where Reaper is installed. The icons, keymap and menuset file will unpack where they need to be. However, you will need to move the MenuSets folder to your AppData\Reaper\MenuSets folder, as it is the place where they should be (and where Reaper looks for menusets in the first place). This is for 32-bit Windows. I have no experience with x64 Windows yet, but I'm sure it's pretty much the same.
- Open Reaper.
- Open Actions list, Import/Export...->Import... Now navigate to your KeyMaps folder, then load up Color Toolbar Actions.ReaperKeyMap.
- Open Customize toolbar... Bear in mind that I used TOOLBAR 2 for these icons. If you have toolbar 2 already taken, then you need to go to the folder in which you installed Reaper, and check inside MenuSets folder, open Color Toolbar.ReaperMenuSet file, and change the number inside the brackets. For example, if you have toolbar 4 free, change [Floating Toolbar 2] to [Floating Toolbar 4].
- Now go back to Reaper's Customize toolbar... and load up the Color Toolbar.ReaperMenuSet file. It should be located in your Reaper\ColorThemes folder.
- After you loaded the toolbar, save it, and then open Color Management window. We need to load our custom colorset in there. The file is located inside the attached ZIP file below.
- That's all, folks!
