one question: how to make possible to choose from…

For now it's impossible. It's a known bug. Houdini can handle one theme at the time present in confing directory. I think SESI will fix it concerning such a huge amount of interest for it from so many granddads here . I wouldn't believe it
sy.

hey man thanks for info, yea SESI wake up, wake up

future versions of Houdini will be able to handle different named colour schemes.

anyone knows how to use themes in 9.1 ?

From the edit menu select Color Settings. From there you can select one of 2 default themes or download from the exchange.

ahhhh yeah here it is, thanks man

thanks all for the UI colour scheme i prefer the dark colours now after a few days of use

it would be nice to be able to increase the saturation of the pane header colours, without having to increase the saturation of the entire desktop (viewport and all).

Just modify the following lines in your color scheme file

ObjectColor: HSV 210 0.20 0.95
SopColor: HSV 100 0.20 0.95
DopColor: HSV 0 0.20 0.95
PopNetColor: HSV 170 0.20 0.95
PopColor: HSV 170 0.20 0.95
ShopColor: HSV 340 0.20 0.95
VopNetColor: HSV 260 0.20 0.95
VopColor: HSV 260 0.20 0.95
ChopNetColor: HSV 60 0.20 0.95
ChopColor: HSV 60 0.20 0.95
CopNet2Color: HSV 40 0.20 0.95
Cop2Color: HSV 40 0.20 0.95
OutputColor: HSV 20 0.20 0.95
RootColor: HSV 0 0 1
The second number controls the saturation.

(The color scheme file should be in your $HOME/houdini9.1/config directory
