    Set Background Color

    Product(s): ProStructures
    Version(s): CONNECT Edition
    Environment: N/A
    Area: General
    Subarea: Backstage
    Original Author Sandip Kar, Bentley Product Advantage Group

    Overview

    In ProStructures we have option to choose our needed background color. One can set different color for Design, Drawing and Sheet Background.
    This document will explain all about the settings of Background color.

    Method

    Please follow the below steps to achieve this.

    1. Go to File > Settings User > Preferences and open click the Preferences to open up the Preferences Dialog

    2. In Preferences Dialog go to View Options under Category. In that we have the options to set up the Design / Drawing / Sheet Background color
    By default if you don't check the box, you will get the background color for 

    Design Background as BLACK (RGB 0,0,0)
    Drawing Background as GREY (RGB 80,80,80)
    Sheet Background as WHITE (RGB 255,255,255)

    3. To change to different color, check the boxes and then pick the color from the color box. Like here as shown in below example we have changed the color as shown.

    In this way it can be changed for Drawing and Sheet also.

    4. In addition to this if anyone wants to have White Background that can be done in the option. Check Black Background -> White as shown as below.
