    Keyin to toggle background colour on a per view basis

    AskInga logo

    Original Tip Date: December 2003

    Updated:  July 2011

     
    Phil Chouinard shared this on one of the archived Bentley discussion groups:

    To toggle between a black and white background on a view-by-view basis, use these V8 keyins

    mdl keyin calculat calculator userPrefsP->extFlags.invertBackground=!userPrefsP->extFlags.invertBackground;view off 1;view on 1


    Watch the line wraps, this is one continuous keyin.
