Changing background and foreground colors in FLUENT 13

kozden · October 20, 2013, 08:18

Hi everyone,

I want to set the background colour of the plots in white and axes, lines colour to black. How can I do this in FLUENT 13?

Edit: I tried to change by using TUI command /display/set/colors> foreground "black" and I changed the foreground to black. However, when I tried to do the same thing with background command FLUENT says: "invalid command [background]"

Thank you all,
Kamil

This is covered in the documentation.

I agree with jdrch. You should consult the user manual for such queries where everything is documented already.

If you are saving this plot as JPEG or some other format, you can do that by in Fluent by clicking File >> Save Picture. In the window that opens, you can select the required file format and set coloring to monochrome with the white background option checked. Click save and it will be saved in specified directory...
