Hello all,

I feel like a complete Idiot asking this, but I've scoured the net and asked my co-workers, I cant seem to find an answer. After beginning the layout process in ADS, my background color changes and I can't see anything anymore! I've looked at the project display settings, the schematic display settings, but I can't find where the global setting is. Has anyone run into this? I just want to see my component values!

thanks for any and all help with such a trivial problem,
Sami

What is your ADS version?

Do you mean that the background color in Options > Preferences > Display has no effect?

Or do you want to fix a mistake with a "bad" default value? What libraries are listed in your design as the "Referenced Libraries"? These libraries can have their specific schematic preferences, as far as I remember. I noticed very "colorful" settings for some OA interoperability libraries.

Nailed it! Never even considered that imported libraries would have their own color settings. Now I want to know, who over at quarvo enjoys such a pastel theme :razz: ?!? Its soooo hard to read the component values!
