Background color when viewing an autocad .dwg in Inventor

Only when viewing an AutoCAD .dwg (entire file) in Inventor - I forgot where the setting is to change the background color (from black, which hides the dimensions) to something else. Does anyone know where it is?...

Thank you, but this is not an Inventor drawing (.dwg), it is a file created completely in AutoCAD (also a .dwg) and I am opening it from File Explorer. So the "Document Settings" are grayed-out; screenshot below. I've been able to change it in the past, but I just installed IV2024 today, and it defaulted back to this....

Oh, I see...
In your browser section, right-click "Model (AutoCAD)" > Background Color
