Really need a toggle icon or map a key - on/off System Colors DARK and Black on White

We made it. Went from Creo3 to Creo6 in the New Year.

Whilst doing view illustrations, I need to change from the FILE > OPTIONS > SYSTEM APPEARANCE > SYSTEM COLORS > pick DARK to BLACK ON WHITE. Then change back. work some, change to BonW, change back, etc all day long.

HELP. It seems that I spend sooo much time streaming the menus of FILE > OPTIONS > SYSTEM APPEARANCE > SYSTEM COLORS > pick DARK to BLACK ON WHITE or vs-versa too often that there must be some toggle icon for on/off betwixt the two. If not, why not. Or can a keyboard on/off toggle do the same?

It's been a very long 2 weeks constantly toggling this long way. I've been spoiled in other CAD systems with functionality like that for years. Just these past 3 years is different in CREO.

Why don't you make a couple of mapkeys to switch back and forth?

"wwww" to switch to black and white and "cccc" to switch back to your standard colors.

It would be nice. 🙂

How does one do this? Like I mentioned, I'm only 3 years young on CREO.
