Background color

Background color allows you to uniquely stylize your scene by choosing a scene background color to improve your story. For example, you can choose a white background that emphasizes your buildings.

2. Navigate around the scene to a new camera view and click the Update To Current View button to update the clipped extent to reflect your current view in the scene.
