| Unfortunately, there is currently no way to get it to launch in fullscreen mode. Maybe the saver launchers have a way around this problem. The startup spin vector problem is another problem, since LDView doesn't have any way of making this happen (...) (24 years ago, 13-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

| (...) I found the problem...and it is what I thought it would be :) Basically, what you are creating is a sphere with a speckled texture. The background color of this texture is black, which is why you can't change the background color. However, the (...) (24 years ago, 13-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

| (...) I use a "fog" object to make the transition from the ground plane to the background smoother. For day scenes, I generally use a very light blue color (like <0.7,0.9,1>). For night scenes, you could use a dark blue <0,0,0.4> or black <0,0,0>. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
