Hi Andrew
Is there a way to change the Colour of the QCADCAM Background in 3DView from Black to Another Colour?
I’m not using the view as intended I want to quickly get a perspective view of work on my screen…
I hope this makes sense..
Cheers
John

Hi John,
Sorry, not that I know of … 
What’s about to use the Projection Tool instead? The Background would be your normal background color …
Hi Husky
Thanks for the prompt reply… yes I looked at that but I would prefer it to be perspective
rather than Isometric.. I know I’m being fussy but I have my reasons for doing this 
Cheers
John
P.s.: Why is your example so much nicer than mine … >

I don’t know exactly what you need … But it comes down to “Where is a will there’s a way”
e_surprised
Okay.. How did you do that 
Cheers
John
The part is designed in QCAD, saved as 2D dxf, imported into a 3D CAD … and then I changed the background.
Extruding would be the next step but … 
You had me fooled … lol
I’ll just do as I always do.. screenshot then Irfanview - Adobe Perspective Plugin.. 
Cheers
John
John,
There are more options beside ‘Isometric’ projections.
And even a solution for projecting inclined/rotated planes: Isometric Projections from Non-square Drawings
I’m not sure if the CAM 3D view is a vanishing point perspective, if that’s what you’re looking for.
That is also not the case for Perspective.gif in the example of Husky.
I know that my CNC driver CAM preview has such an option.
For illustration, one can always change the colors of the image itself.
One can even set ‘black’ as transparent color so that the background is the page or paper background.
Regards,
CVH
