Scott:

Any chance of a rendition without the black backround???

John,

I use Black Background in AutoCAD, which results in a Black Background under the Schematics per an "Export" Operation.

Changing the Background Color may be performed pre-exports, by selecting a different Background Color for either Model Space or Paper Space ("Layout") in the AutoCAD Environment.

To directly answer your question, yes I can export drawings with a Background Color other than Black.

A White Background would be more "Prototypical", so I will generate a set with White Backgrounds ASAP.
Instead of re-posting the altered Background drawings, I might compile the finished sets into separate Compressed Archives ("Zip" Files), which may be downloaded from ECN.

*** Personal Note ***

I like the Background of all Applications to be as dark as possible. This helps to reduce eye strain, and makes drawing elements more visible to me.

Not everybody prefers this option... in fact many people despise dark Backgrounds and Windows elements.

Anyhow, let me know if you have additional questions or comments.

BTW, other than the dark Backgrounds, how do these drawings look?

Feel free to gauge your remarks per the scale below:


-10 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ -5 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 0 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10

-10 = Suck Beyond Belief
|
|
-5 = Suck Moderately
|
|
0 = Not Bad
|
|
5 = Fine / OK
|
|
10 = Nice Looking

I grew up with everything being white on black yellow on black or green on black because that was what monitors were. Then, with Windoze and newer monotors, we all started getting used to a "paper white" background. These days I agree black background seems harder to read.
You can load these into a picture editor and invert the colors.

BTW if I am reading a screen all day I really like yellow on blue but that may just be me. It is really too hard to get everything flipped over but I do have all of my DOS aps that way.

A 10 from me. I would like thw white backround to show in 1 of my classes if OK with you

John,

Feel free to show any of my images posted here at ECN.

I will get the white backgrounds ASAP.
