I want the background of the window to be pure black (or white) for the export for BMP. How do I hide the grid, the coordinates, the axes and annotations, etc. ?
I have 4 layers in my drawing in addition to the 0 layer.
For BMP export, I switch off all layers except the one being exported. When I export to BMP, the drawing area's background (the light gray with grid lines and axes, etc.) is included in the drawing. I want them all gone. Just the polygons I drew should remain.
Your going to have post a picture to understand what you mean.
You can turn off the grid and the ucs off
Grid / Off
UCSICON / off
It sounds like you may need to play with your visual styles _vscurrent maybe needs to be set to 2dwireframe and your colors in options>colors Set the Modelspace background to black or white. I just drew a white rectangle with my modelspace background color set to black and it appears just as it did on screen.
That helped.
How do I get rid of the ViewCube and the [+]|Top|2D Wireframe| annotation at the top left of the screen ?
navvcube off
Don't know about the other one... I'm in windows tho not Mac. I can't even get my cube to show up..
Did not do anything. I just switched it off in the options.
Im PlotterManager, create a new local plotter, and select Raster File Formats for the plotter model. A plethora of choices, including windows bmp
better control of what get's put out.
