Plant 3D - Changing Color of Ortho Cube for Better Contrast

Hey everyone. Is there a way to change the Plant 3D ortho cube color? The orignal out-of-the box washed out green color is reported by my users as hard to see in busy drawings. We would like to be able to assign a different color with better contrast.

@S_Simard ,

 

No, it is not possible to give the Ortho select Cube a different colour. The colours 100,255,100 are hard coded.

But always something new, even after more than 14 years the first time that the colour of the Ortho Selection Cubes should be selectable.

Thanks for your response h_eger. I also noticed that we can temporarily change the color and transparency on the properties form when selecting the cube but it's a temporary solution. The default color comes back on the next Ortho view edit. Not a showstopper for us. I will relate this information to my user community. Thank you again.

NOT TRUE!! If you open an Orthographic View, you will see the cube. Click the view and hover over the positional dot (square) until it goes red, then right click and hit 'quick properties'  and then select what ever colour you want.
