Re: Turning Zolko's theme in to a Preference Pack
What is the ms/fps display in the lower left of the 3D view?
And, more importantly...how does one get rid of it?
EDIT: Found it...

I find it somewhat more palatable as icons opposed to tabs. Either way, I don't expect a new user is going to grok the idea. Once you know what the icons or labels mean then it may be marginally better the a drop down box.

Re: Turning Zolko's theme in to a Preference Pack
I am continuing to use/explore this configuration.
One note is that the specific Assembly 4 tweaks may not be desirable in a default pack. And, it took me some digging to get them gone...
There are other things that I think would help new users that are turned off/on. While the navicube is there, I think the axis cross should be available, it is just a more obvious indication of the world coordinate system and where the user orients.
I also think the esc to exit Sketcher should be off by default. For new users it is frustrating to hit esc to exit a command, but exit sketcher instead.
I also don't want the Blender mouse mode as default. It should be CAD.
Maybe a separate pack for commonly selected mouse modes...

Re: Turning Zolko's theme in to a Preference Pack
PreferencePacks don't save window layout, toolbar layout, default start-up workbench ... so not really adapted for the task.
Re: Turning Zolko's theme in to a Preference Pack
Hmm...that might explain it the stuff I'm seeing. I actually used the config you posted the other day...
I actually didn't use the saved pack you posted later.
