What’s new in the View menu in Inventor 2025

February 24, 2025 Jennifer MacMillan

While developing any Inventor courseware I take a lot of screen captures directly out of the Inventor software. For image clarity, in both our print and online formats, it tends to be best to have a white background for my Inventor models. This meant I always had to set my Application Options in-canvas color scheme setting to Presentation and change it back again if I ever wanted to design using a more convenient darker background. Did you notice I said “had”? Yes, there is now an easier way. Watch my video to find out how! 

As a bonus, I also noticed another cool command on the View menu called Display Separate Colors. Watch until the end of my video to find out what this is all about.  

I hope you find these changes to the View menu useful as well!
