Re: Background colour

Open your templates used to start new files, and set it there. As @AlexLachance mentioned, the Gradient Background setting is a "per file" setting while the Solid Background setting is a global setting. Doesn't make a lot of sense but I think the original intent of the Gradient Background...

Background colour

Hi guys, just a quick one.

I am going through some exercises, I have set the background to a gradient colour, but, when I start a new document, the background is all white again.
How do I get it to stay in the gradient ccolour ?

Thanks in advance

Re: Solid Edge 2024 Community edition is now available

I need a little help guys.
I have tried to get the 2024 Community edition but basically they won't let me, when I go to the site I get this error message on the community edition page. If this version is free, why would I have so much trouble getting it.

Re: hole displays inches not mm

Has nothing to do with Units or Dimension Format. The Units are set in the Hole DB (Excel) for each Stan...

Hi KennyG, sorry for being thick, I checked the options, all is st to metric, I don't know how to get the hole dialogue box to show metric dimens...
