How to change Pickbox Color
« on: September 20, 2022, 04:30:42 PM »
I changed the cross-hair color, but the pickbox in the center is still white. How do I change the color? What's happening is when I attach a PDF with white color the pickbox is camouflaged with the I had to adjust the fade to counter this. PDF. See screenshot.

You shouldn't be able to change the color separately. It's all the same when you change "crosshairs" color. A few things to try. Try toggling the color to some other color and then back to magenta. Try restarting AutoCAD. Try disabling some of the GRAPHICSCONFIG settings.

When change the color, use an "Index Color". 
Or should I say don't use anything except an "Index Color".

I think restarting AutoCAD changed it. I was spinning my head with this. It's weird that I would have to restart to see the changes. Thanks!

It may have been a glitch with the graphics card. Is your driver up to date?
