Dear Sharp 3D team, I want to know how can I set the background to pure white in the rendering (while the default is a little bit grey). The operation system is MacOS. Many thanks! Zonghu

Choose Colored mood environment and and set background to #FFFFFF

Thanks for your kind help!! Actually, I want to take a screenshot of my modeling into a report, so I want the background can be the same as the Word page (like the attached pic). [pic]

Perhaps in that case transparent background is a better idea. [image]

Yeah! That’s it! Thank you very much! :grinning_face: :grinning_face:

similar question: is there a way that i can use the “black and white stage” environment preset but have a transparent background so that my video shows up with a true white background instead of the way the standard white background shows up slightly gray? how would i do this?

hi @xdrakosha , your idea of the transparent background works for me if i use a screen capture as a snapshot. i want to do a screen recording of me panning through the model as a video and have the background white. is there a way to get a white background for that? thank you!

thanks for responding. when i use transparent background the screen capture comes out with white background. when i do a screen recording of me panning with transparent background it shows the transparency checkerboard. the background looks slightly gray in your video, which is what i am trying to a…

Just switch Display mode to “Visualised” and you’ll get same result as in rendering mode.

But that will bring shadows and lights so you’ll end up with gray BG again.
