display environment and constraint indications

Anonymous
Not applicable

with display settings set to "photo booth" or "infinity pool" (both white background), it is possible to se if lines and points are fully constrained by their color.  

 

Changing the environment to one of the non-white settings makes it impossible to see if end points are constrained.

 

in the example below (grey room environment), it can bee seen that unconstrainted bodies are blue (the circle) and constraint bodies are white (Lines) - so far, so good. The vertical line is not fully constrained and have a white end point in the "lose" end. The horizontal line, on the other hand, is fully constrained but also have a white end point! 

 

Is it possible to correct this color scheme, so the non-white backgrounds can be used? 

 

(white is a horrible background color on a computer, as it strain your eyes)

Hello

 

Thanks for posting. Unfortunately there is no way to change the color of sketch element color in Fusion 360. This software is more focused in collaboration. The sketch element color in different state (like, constrained, non constrained) follows a specific protocol so that every one collaboration can experience one identification.

hi Moshiur,

 

Thanks for your replay. My post was actually not meant as a question on how I could change the colors myself, but a bug report - the protocol defining the colors schemes are obvious flawed and don't work with the different environment settings😉

 

Constraint identification - or rather the "lack of constraint" identification is already a weak point of fusion 360 compared to other systems.
