Can't see selection

Can anything be done with this? I find it frustrating when I can barely tell what is selected.

 

The problem got noticeably worse a couple months ago or so after some update.

You could hide the bodies in the browser to see the sketch profiles easier. You might also try a different environment to change the color scheme.

If that does not quite do it, you can look into editing the XML files for the color schemes.

 

 

I hope this helps.

I am looking at the XML, but there is a lot of undocumented stuff there, any idea what to change?

 

I am sort of afraid this isn't possible in the XML, as for all I know there are using the color and shading it internally.  I tried a couple of different environments, its not much different.  

 

Am I really the only one who can't see what is selected good enough?

It looks like changing

 

 <SketchProfileColor ARGB="0.15 1 0.55 0" />

 

to 

 

 <SketchProfileColor ARGB="0.65 1 0.55 0" />

 

gets me what I want.  Really though, will this stick after an update?

 

These files got installed as read only for some reason, which I had to change.  They were located at C:\Users\Name\AppData\Local\Autodesk\webdeploy\production\7ca01d20fe2dafa65f944d9236f39fdec21b9b7a\Neutron\Server\Scene\Resources\Environments\

This problem is being worked on right now.  The situation has been around for a while, but it was made worse by a recent change where non-active sketches were dimmed out a bit (to distinguish active from inactive sketch).

 

But, the point here is a good one, and we will improve the selection.
