- [Instructor] In addition to the workspaces

that you can choose up here,

you can also choose different options

for the tools and the color of the interface.

And that's helpful if you prefer, for example,

black text on a white background.

You can go into the Customize menu in 3ds Max

to Custom UI and Default Switcher.

On the left are the default settings for, for example,

what type of light you will create

or what kind of materials will be populated

in the default material editor,

or whether objects will have their properties derived

by layer or not.

And that's the tool settings over here.

I'm going to leave that at Max which is the default.

Over on the right you have your color schemes.

And we're looking at the default color scheme now.

I'm going to actually leave it

at the default color scheme for this course,

but if you wished you could switch it

over to a light-colored interface

by choosing ame-light here.

And then once that's done

you can click the Set button

and it will take a moment to load all the icons,

and your screen is going to flash,

but don't panic,

that just means 3ds Max is loading everything up.

And it says here default settings will take effect

the next time you restart.

They're talking about these settings,

the tool settings.

So the tool settings will not take effect

until the next time you restart.

But as you can see the interface has changed.

Now we've got a light-colored interface.

I'm just going to switch that back,

Customize, Custom UI and Defaults Switcher.

Choose Default and click Set.

And once again now we're back

to our default 3ds Max interface.
