How Do I Turn Off Dark Mode in AutoCAD?

Are you tired of working in Dark Mode in AutoCAD and want to switch back to the default light mode? Well, you’re in luck!

In this tutorial, I will guide you through the steps to turn off Dark Mode in AutoCAD. So let’s get started!

Step 1: Open AutoCAD

The first step is to open AutoCAD on your computer. You can do this by clicking on the AutoCAD icon on your desktop or searching for it in the Start menu.

Step 2: Access the Options Menu

Once AutoCAD is open, go to the top-left corner of the application window and click on the “Application” button. This will open a dropdown menu. From the dropdown menu, select “Options”.

Step 3: Navigate to the Display tab

In the Options dialog box that appears, you will see various tabs on the left-hand side. Click on the “Display” tab to access display-related settings.

Step 4: Disable Dark Mode

Under the Display tab, look for a section called “Color Scheme”. Here, you will find two options: “Dark” and “Light”. The current selection indicates whether Dark Mode is enabled or disabled.

  • If Dark Mode is currently enabled (selected), click on “Light” to switch back to the default light mode.
  • If Light Mode is already selected, then Dark Mode is already disabled and there’s no need for further action.

Note: The appearance of options may vary depending on your version of AutoCAD. However, the general steps should remain similar across different versions.

Step 5: Apply the Changes and Close Options

After you have made your selection, click on the “Apply” button at the bottom of the Options dialog box to apply the changes. You will notice that AutoCAD switches to the selected color scheme immediately.

Finally, click on the “OK” button to close the Options dialog box and return to your AutoCAD workspace.

Conclusion

By following these simple steps, you can easily turn off Dark Mode in AutoCAD and switch back to the default light mode. Remember that you can always switch between Dark Mode and Light Mode as per your preference by following these steps again.

Now that you know how to disable Dark Mode in AutoCAD, go ahead and customize your workspace according to your preference. Happy designing!
