Hi Guys,
Is there a way to change the animation editor background colour?
The black background to intense for some artists here.
I looked in the 3DSceneColor configuration file, but could not find an entry for the animation editor. Maybe I missed it or maybe I'm not looking in the right file?
Any ideas?

Hi! I can't find this value in Houdini 18. Do you know how to change it in H18 ?
Exit Houdini.
Copy one of the .hcs files (UIDark, for example) from your Houdini installation directory (I'm using Windows as an example):
C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 18.0.xxx\houdini\config (Note: xxx is your Houdini build)
… to:
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\houdini18.0\config
Rename the .hcs file to a name that suits you, like <your name>.hcs
Once copied/renamed, edit the new <your name>.hcs file and look for and change the following values:
Scheme: Houdini Dark
Change to:
Scheme: <your name>
ChannelEditorBackground: 0.00 0.00 0.00 // Background of the graph
Change the 0.00 0.00 0.00 values to a colour of your choice
Save file.
Launch Houdini
Main Menu >> Edit >> Color Settings… In the window that opens, select <your name> from the Color Scheme drop down list
You may need to restart Houdini. Hope that helps/works.
