How to switch off the dark background in cfx-post
 

Hi, all

I was trying to make animations for my fluid domain, but the dark background has to be included for (although its colour can be changed, axis can be visible and invisible) all the internally generated images for frames. Is it possible to switch off the background and the logo, only animate my computing domain? I've seen a few animations without background from website but couldn't find a way to do it on my own. Any comments about this?

Thanks a lot in advance

Regards Forrest

Forrest,

At the bottom of the animation editor, choose 'Options...'. In the options form, select 'white background'.

If you want a different color, choose Edit>Options>Viewer and change the background colour.

Hi, Robin

Thank you for your reply. I used the option you suggested before. Normally if I save an image, in the middle of the picture is my fluid domain which can be bigger or smaller comparing with the whole picture size, either white background or any colour, the background is still there, which means on the bottom left, there is an axis view, and bottom right, is the CFX logo. Now, I am aware that it is not possible to get rid of the background, but how about the logo, is there a way to make the logo invisible?

Thank you again for your comments

Regards Forrest
