Change highlighted color in Vault Thin Client browser?

Anonymous — Mon, 19 Oct 2020 18:38:41 GMT

We are using Vault Pro 2019. When using the selection tool in the Vault Thin Client, the selected part is highlighted in the model browser. This is very useful. It's very hard to see, however, as the highlight color is very light. Is it possible to change this in a setting somewhere? Also, I'm having a hard time figuring out how the get the model browser to "stick" for all of our users. You have to manually turn it on every time a session is started. Is there also a setting for this?

Thank you!

The Vault Thin Client does not have a model browser.

Can you post an image of what you are referring to?

It looks like you are opening the DWF file inside of a browser. Open the DWF file in full Design Review to see what it looks like.

@ihayesjr sorry for the inactivity. I tried opening in Design Review as you requested and notice exactly the same behaviour as in the Thin Client browser view. When selecting a component in the 3d model, with the model browser activated (and yes, there is a model browser within the thin client) the highlighting of the selected component is so lightly colored that it is extremely hard to see. I'm just wondering if there's a way to change the shading or coloring of the highlighted component in the browser to make it more noticeable.

In my opinion, this might be related to the color scheme configured in the OS.

@ihayesjr I thought the same thing and have been messing around with that the last 15 minutes. It doesn't seem to make a difference. We are using Windows 10 and I've changed dark mode/light mode, accent colors, and contrast settings without any effect in either the thin client previewer or Design Review, for the highlighted selection in the browser. If you are seeing something different or have a different setting to try changing I am open to trying it.

As always, thank you for the help!
