One of the properties that all schematic objects have is Style, and in one of those there is an option to set the colour of the object. Note that I am using Altium 18, so this may not work for you - but I think the underlying principle exists for the last several Altium versions.Įvery object on the schematic, as you have no doubt seen, is a number of system properties (If you have not encountered this, click something an press F11, or otherwise summon the "Properties" panel). So, how do I change my colours so I can have green nets, red symbol bodies etc please? - * With apologies to Douglas Adams.Īt the risk of sounding doom-monger-y, you will rue the day your company chose to use Altium :) Chris is right, don't try to adapt the software to your preferences too much - it will only play by its own rules.īut, I don't wish to sounds too negative, so let me explain what I would do. An hour or so of Googling has found me nowt either. No-one else here has tried to change from the glaring white background, so they can't help me. Otherwise you have a black symbol on a black background saying "do not click." (*)
In fact if you can change the background to be black, you surely must be able to change everything else from being black. There surely must be a way of doing such a basic thing on what purports to be a very powerful CAD system. However, I cannot find where you then change the colours of the nets, symbol bodies, pin numbers etc etc. Now, changing the background to black is easy. I want to change the colours in the schematic, most especially so I have a black background. I've used umpteen CAD systems over the years, but done very little Altium. I've just started doing some work for a company doing some CAD work where they use Altium 16.
