Changing Background colour of the "Sheet"
Changing Background colour of the "Sheet"
(OP)
Running Draftsight 11.2.802 on two Windows XPpro machines. Both have identical issues when trying to change the background colour of the "Sheet".
On the previous versions the "Tools - Options - System Options - Display - Element Colours" selection worked on all options. On the currently installed version the "Sheet" option does not.
Has anyone else seen the same issue or got a fix?

I would suspect your graphics cards and/or drivers. I run XP Pro x32 at home and work, both mainly for SolidWorks. The home card is approved for SW and handles the DS sheet colour OK, the works card is not approved, and does not change the sheet colour.

So, it must have been a glitch/bug in DS which was fixed in the latest version.

I downloaded and installed 11.3.1131 and now the Sheet background changes take effect properly. I just changed the color of my selection cursor to remind myself that I'm in the Sheet view.
My hardware is a Dell Precision M4500 mobile workstation, with the NVIDIA Quadro FX 880M graphics card, running both the onboard and a 22" external monitor via DVI.
