Ortho View Cube Colors

[Anonymous]

We have a guy here that is red/green color blind. This makes it near impossible for him to tell which face of the ortho view cube he's working with. The whole cube is green and the face you're working with shows up red. Is there a way to modify these colors so I can make it easier for him? I know he can just look in the ribbon and see that he's working in the top or left but I'd like him to be able to have the visual cue too...

There is no edible place that you can do this in the OPTIONS or in the Project Setup in the ortho settings.

If you do believe that this would be helpful to have in the program, and feel that this would be good to enhance the product. Then please take a moment of your time to go here:

I pasted a link to this post for them to read. Hopefully this is something that can be editable in the future, at least behind the scenes on something...

I have updated my ortho template (ortho.dwt) , by default the model space viewmode is set to shaded(which colors the viewcube red and green), you can change it to 2d or 3d wireframe. The view cube will have no color in these modes. Also 2d wireframe will speed up the regen time of the model while trying to manipulate the viewcube. Remember to save the changes you make to the ortho.dwt as a dwt and replace the existing file. Hopes this helps while we wait for a setting.
