So when I'm in my IDW drawing and making a sketch and projecting lines, it comes out as this Yellow and its just really hard to see for me. I went through the options and customize schemes but i cant find this color option. I tried to change between schemes as well but it still stays yellow. Can i change this at all?

Sadly not. I had this changed first and nothing. While it changes the initial color to Green on the selected surface, when i click okay to draw on the sketch, its all yellow again.

Sorry, I had to repost the screenshot to the correct one under Drafting. That one works.

Interesting..... Seems under drafting i dont have those additional options and thats probably why.

Are you using 2024 Inventor? 2023 still has the issue of not having that option, so there are some workarounds on the post below:

Hi Brian,

 

To change it in 2023 and earlier, go to Color Scheme Editor -> select Light Scene -> change the Reference Curves color.

Many thanks!
