You can modify the contrast,
fade, and monochrome settings of an underlay. Also, so that the
underlay is visible, you can adjust the underlay colors based on
the AutoCAD background colors.
Adjusting
these settings does not alter the original file and does not affect other
instances of the underlay in the drawing. You can change the contrast, fade,
monochrome, and colors in the Properties palette when an underlay
is selected. You can also use the DWFADJUST, PDFADJUST, DGNADJUST, or ADJUST commands.
If you change contrast,
fade, and monochrome values, plotted output is affected.
Adjust Colors for Background
Adjust
Colors for Background controls whether the underlay colors are visible
against the drawing background color. The default setting of Yes
indicates that the background colors of the underlay and the drawing
environment are analyzed to see if they are both light or both dark,
or is one dark and the other light. When one background is light
and the other dark, the colors of the underlay are inverted so the
underlay is displayed. If the setting is changed to No, the original
colors of the underlay are used. Depending on the background colors,
the underlay might not be visible.
