Hi,
I'm setting the customer default to reflect our setting in the drafting template.
I like to have the customer default set as the template.
I'm looking for the customer default setting that pilot the background color in the drafting environment.
To verify if my setting are correct, I create a new blank file that inherit all setting from our customer default.

Thank you...

Try going to...

Customer Defaults -> Gateway -> Visualization -> Color Settings

...and check that last section of the dialog.

Hi John,
sorry for the delay.
I tested your suggestion before to write this post, but doesn't work.
I want to replicate the template setting in the customer default.
I attach the template.

Thank you...

These Visualization settings are Part Specific. This means that you have to set them and THEN create a new part from scratch in order to have them take effect. If you already have a Drawing Template file (BTW, your so-called 'template' had no drawing defined in it) and don't wish to junk it and start over, then you're going to have to open it, make the changes there and resave it.
