Hmm, yes but there is always a compromise when viewing Wireframe / Hidden line and Hidden line removed - i.e you need good contrast... so any colour stands out very well with a white~ish background. The darker the background the harder to see construction lines / curves in sections / sketches or even in 3D ( D mode). Bright white I agree is too hard on the eye's - probably the quality of the monitor helps here as well. I used Ivory for a fair while but I lost contrast with my sandy yellow custom - now back to white again. A good useful video.
Another very informative video Dave. 👍 Can you change the color of different components? Like, you have a gray block in video, and you wanted to put a cylinder coming out of the middle of it, can you make the cylinder yellow? Just curious. 👍
Very well done! you have touched on some useful starting point issues. very informative video Dave. I am having trouble with showing measurements: how tall or long
Hi, how do I change the precision of the dimensions(mm)? Recently I was designing a membrane for a vacuum valve and I had a problem because the diameter was 32.62mm and when typed it shows 32 or 33mm.
Comments on my videos help TH-cam know it's popular. As a result, my video will be seen by more people. Thank you for helping my channel reach new people.
Great tips Dave. The more I play with this program the more I like it.
Thanks for watching Gary. It is really pretty powerful software for a free version.
@@DaveGatton It sure is. I do wish it could save as an IGES file. But for the price it is great!
Good info Dave! I definitely think the blue background is a must do. It is sooooo much easier on the eyes.
Thanks for watching Ryan. I've been looking at that skyblue background for nearly 20 years and it's so much nicer than the default background color.

Great video Mr. Gatton you answered a lot of the questions I was trying to figure out!!
Thanks for watching John. Make sure you're subscribed to my channel and you won't miss any of my tutorial videos.
Great tutorial! I loves all these videos. Makes me want to create something.
Perfect timing, Dave. I'm just getting started and you answered questions I didn't even know that I had!
Some good info Dave. First thing I did was change mine to sky blue and gray parts.
Thanks for watching Larry. The sky blue is definitely my favorite. Been using that background color for years.
Thanks for putting this information out there for us. A great starting point to build on!
Thanks for watching George. Much appreciated.
Played with it the other day, really cool software specially for free. You could even do assembly's.
Thanks for watching Juan. I have a few assembly projects coming up soon.
@@DaveGatton Awesome !! Ill be watching😃
Dave, thanks, more good information. This program seems more “logical” than Fusion.
Thanks for watching Paul. I appreciate your support.

Thanks for watching Troy. Yes you can easily change the color. I can show you during the next Coffee Session. 😊

I will have some videos on dimensioning in the near future.

Waste an hour giving 5 min of info
