Background color changing

Is it possible to change only the background color in my model? I normally end up pasting some of the charts into PowerPoint, and I need a white background, but I use a black background when I'm working with it. 

 

If I change the background color now, it resets all my other colors that I'm using for my visualizations so I end up having to go back and redo all of those. 

 

Appreciate any help!

Hi @Anonymous 

 

If all of your visuals are changing background when you change the canvas background, it's likely that your visuals have a completely transparent background or no background at all.

 

If you do not want all of the visuals to change background colour, instead of changing the background colour of the entire model, just change the visual's background colour to that which you require.

 

You can achieve this by clicking on the respective visual, going to the visual options, and going to the Background option.

 

Hope this helps.
