Changing Background Color

[sinanbakir]

Hi all,

I am new to Revit Structure 2011. I appreciate if anybody can help me.

I'm trying to change the background color of the plan view, but no solution found yet. I made a search through google, but the results was showing the solutions for the earlier versions of Revit.(I guess?) .

In the manage tab -> object styles: There can be changed the element line colors. But these line colors does not look as good as they are on black background. So that I would like to change the background to black as it is like in AutoCAD.

Thanks

Great tip!
I hate working with a white background and no one I asked even knew it could be done.
I had been wondering if it could be done at all, and alas it can.

Bad thing is with 2011, the view box placed on sheets tend to stay black. So if your moving views around on a sheet you don't know you have the view selected until you try moving it.
