I made a new template where everything is light grey, a bit more like max 6. This works fine, except for one thing; the loudspeaker icon on the ezdac~ is dark grey on a light grey background when the ezdac~ is set to "off", and medium grey on a light grey background when it is set to "on".

I can of course change this for the ezdac~ on an individual level, using the "format" function. But can I change it for the entire template, so that every ezdac~ behaves as I want it to?

default-ezdac-template-in-max7

why don't you just save a snippet with your fav ezdac? then you just right-click, paste from, user snippets, fav ezdac~

^i like that snippets idea(i was thinking you could also create an 'object prototype' but there's no prototypes in the contextual menu when right-clicking on background of patcher... only when right-clicking on objects that already exist)

Thanks for the snippet tip Florent. That will work, but what I really would like is the default template for new patchers to have this ezdac~, but as Raja says, there’s no prototypes in the contextual menu when right-clicking on background of the patcher, only when right-clicking on objects that already exist. I am aiming for a default template where everything is a bit more like max 6. I just want my working environment to be a little more discrete.

It would be great if Cycling added this. Otherwise, max7 has been great so far!

Maybe it is just a matter of adding a "bright" style in the appearance menu in the patcher inspector.
