AutoCad :: Paperspace Background Color In 2013 For Mac

Feb 19, 2013

I have a mac. I am trying to change the background color in paperspace from the eye straining white to a neutral grey. Everywhere I search I am told that the answer is in options>display and then change it to what ever you want. However, mac has preferences instead of options and no display tab. And in all the tabs i do have, there is no obvious alternative.

In Autocad 2012 the white cursor automatically toggles to black when moved onto the white background of paperspace. This does not occur in 2013. Imported the sysvaribles from 2012 into 2013. Cursor still does not toggle.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Text Background Color

Jan 30, 2013

Would like to put a gray (or other color) background on some text.  Drawing contains some reference numbers to others drawings that may change and would like to be able to spot them more readily by scanning for color.  Do not want to mask, just a different color.  Thought this would be in mtext drop down but don't see it.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Background Hatch Color Properties?

Dec 5, 2012

Background Hatch Color Properties? When using a background color in a hatch pattern... is it possible to set transparancy and/or screening options when using an *.stb file?

If I were using a *.ctb file it would be obvious, but I'm doing contract work for a client and am using their *.stb file, and I don't have the option of adding another option to their *.stb file.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Scaling Objects Correctly To Fit In Paperspace?

Oct 26, 2012

how you get objects, say i drew a rectangle, to the correct size from model space to paper space. And why when you change the dimensions of an object to meters from milimeters, does it not change the size of the object on paperspace when it's at the same scale.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Color Of Paperspace Outside Page Size

Dec 11, 2011

The color of the paper space outside of the page layout is a gray-white very bright that would  not allow the white lines and white letters to be seen.  I have looked at the Options dialog to see if that color can be changed, but I could not find the name of that area outside the per layout ( I have my paper layout to black, which is fine, but I do not know how to change the areas outside the paper).  This bright color came with AutoCAD 2012.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Defaults To Paperspace While Drawing In Model Space?

Mar 25, 2013

We have just loaded AutoCAD 2013 from previously using Version 2012, and I am experiencing a very distubing phenomenon.  While manipulating the commands in any vieport window in Model Space, the program automatically 'jumps' into Paper Space causing an interruption in work-flow, and losing any command which was in progress during the time. For example, if a number of objects were copied with the intention of placing them elsewhere within the same or another paper space window in 'model space' , the program would jump to paper space and the items would be lost, with the necessity of selecting them all over again.  This can happen several times in a row.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Model Documentation Generated Views In Paperspace Layout Tabs

Dec 12, 2012

My group and I are getting an infrequent but annoying problem with Model Documentation (MD) generated views in paperspace layout tabs.  We all on autocad 2013, with sp1.1 installed on x64 machines. 

We are seeing objects/ blocks showing in the MD views (viewbase created) in the layout that are no longer in model space.  One common factor in this is that these objects seem to always be externally referenced (xref) files that have been either unloaded or completely detached (both cases purges preformed afterwards to wipe any remaining blocks made no difference). In this latest case the ghost objects show up twice (we needed 2 of the same xref) at what appears to be the correct old coordinates. 

We have no work around for this and when this occurs we either have to revert to an older version from vault or create a new dwg, port all information over and recreate all views.  The interesting thing about this problem is that if we revert to an older version from vault, the ghosts do not reappear/ reoccur at the same commands they appeared at previously.

Photoshop :: Color-picker Selecting Background Color Instead Of Foreground?

May 19, 2012

You know how when you're painting, you can hold ALT and it will pick a colour from the canvas? Well, for some reason, mine still picks up the colour but it sets it to the background colour instead of the foreground colour.

And when I actually select the colour picker tool, it will only select the background colour but when I hold Alt, it selects the foreground colour. Basically it's flipped where it's supposed to select.

GIMP :: How To See Color Palette To Change Foreground And Background Color

May 22, 2013

How I choose a color for any new objects I want to create. I've opened the toolbox with ctrl-b, which appears on the left side of the window. If I want to , for example, draw a red rectangle, I use the rectangular selection tool, then the bucket fill, and I don't see how to change the foreground color to red.

I've read elsewhere in the forum that there should be two rectangles somewhere on the screen that show foreground and background color, but I don't see them anywhere.
