How do I change the background color in TruePlay.


And how can I make my truePlay play the background color and grid settings that I used in making TS7 recording.

I have found a work around that answers both of your questions. Insert the Scene Ground object into the LE and change the options shown below. You can find the Scene Ground object in the DX Components/View library.

I have not found a way to change the background color,even with a recorded macro. My work around only works with one color and which makes the Scene Ground very large. You could make a Plane (Floor) your choice of color or texture and position it slightly above the grid so that the Scene Ground does not show through. You could also enclose your scene with a Sphere or Cube.

One for developer's I fear.

Sorry, Mr Bones...I knew about the custom grid (and the camera you can insert too-to set your chosen viewpoint) but I have never been able to change the background colour...and I really want to...:confused:
