Background image

[Anonymous]

Hi there.
I'm trying to make a simple macro to change back to my standard desktop background image.

I have come this far with my limited macro knowledge:

Public Sub Revertbackground()

ThisApplication.ColorSchemes.BackgroundType = kImageBackgroundType
ThisApplication.ColorSchemes.Item.ImageFullFileName.......

End Sub

Can anyone help me with the functionality of ImageFullFileName?

Public Sub Revertbackground()

' Change the background type.
ThisApplication.ColorSchemes.BackgroundType = kImageBackgroundType

' Set the backgroud picture (Ex: Cloud).
ThisApplication.ActiveColorScheme.ImageFullFileName = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk\Inventor 2008\Backgrounds\Cloud2.bmp"

End Sub

Here is a little trick how to set white Backgroung (for PrintSrceen for example) without changing ohter colour settings (like lines on the sketch):

Public Sub Background_Image()
ThisApplication.ActiveColorScheme.ImageFullFileName = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk\Inventor 2014\Backgrounds\white.png"

If ThisApplication.ColorSchemes.BackgroundType = kImageBackgroundType Then
 ThisApplication.ColorSchemes.BackgroundType = kGradientBackgroundType
Else
 ThisApplication.ColorSchemes.BackgroundType = kImageBackgroundType
End If

Run_CMD ("AppAmbientShadowCmd")
End Sub

Function Run_CMD(ByVal cmd As String) As Boolean
    ' Get the CommandManager object.
    Dim oCommandMgr As CommandManager
    Set oCommandMgr = ThisApplication.CommandManager

    ' Get control definition for the line command.
    Dim oControlDef As ControlDefinition
    Set oControlDef = oCommandMgr.ControlDefinitions.Item(cmd)
    ' Execute the command.
    Call oControlDef.Execute
End Function

My whie.png file is all white as you can imagine.

good luck
