AutoCAD 2018: Quick Tip - Colours and Theme

By Dennis Collin

The display TAB in "Options" can be used to set preferences like background colours and ribbon themes to a lighter more traditional tone, which is more to some user’s preference.

Simply Type "Options" into the command line.

The Colour Scheme (either Light or Dark), can be set on the "Display" tab.

The Background colour can be set by clicking on "Colors..." and selecting a colour from the drop down menu.

Extra Tip:

Other settings such as automatic save frequency and file paths to plotter configurations and templates can also be configured from the "Options" screen.
