Track Color control in Inspector

In addition to the Track view and Console view, the track color is now also displayed and can be assigned in the Inspector.

Track color visible when scrolling in Console view

When scrolling vertically in the Console view and Inspector, the Track Color, Track Name, Track Number, and WAI strip controls are pinned to the bottom and always visible.

Note: Entire channel strips can optionally be colorized when using the Mercury theme. The Show Strip Colors option in the Edit > Preferences > Customization - Colors dialog box is not available when using the Tungsten theme. A future version of SONAR will allow entire channel strips to be colorized in any theme.
