Paging Charles (or other viewer guru) Can you change the background
Paging Charles (or other viewer guru) Can you change the background
I'm using Charles viewer a lot and I am wondering if it is possible to change the background image (as we can in Inventor)? Default is the cool blue. I looked in the folder and didn't find any .bmp or .jpg files to overwrite. Is it somewhere else or just a defined color? AWESOME tool by the way!
backgrounds are in Inventor x\Backgrounds folder - You can modify what's
there or create your own.

If you change your inventor background to a lighter color, the viewer
background will turn white.

Are you referring to the XGL viewer, the DWF Viewer or the bitmap / jpeg
output?

Background on the XGL viewer. I familiar with the background in the jpeg output. Sometimes I will put the customer's logo in the background for brownie points, but usually just use a watermark of my company logo. I haven't tried the DWF viewer much and keep getting an Express Viewer Error 001-2147024809. I'm sure it have something to do with the version of VoloView that I have loaded or something. I normally just make a .pdf file of the drawings anyway. BTW I just figured out how to put a background watermark on my idw output to .pdf.
Please share, how do you put a background watermark on your PDF's?

I probably shouldn't have mentioned it here. I tried in Inventor, but it was a VERY easy feature to add in Acrobat (we have pro 6.0). You make a .pdf of the drawing, and also make a .pdf of the background you want to use. Then open the drawing pdf, under the document menu there is an option to add a watermark. I'll send you a sample when I stop at the office today. Unfortunately you need acrobat for it though. I was going to export the drawing as a .jpg and then use photoshop but this worked out better.
