Hi
As the title "Inventor - Barely visible Radial Menu icons" suggests...
...the icons on the radial menu are barely visible when using Inventor.
Is there a dark Mode available? so these pale icons are on a mid/dark grey background
Can these Icons be refreshed to make them darker and visible on a white background?
Can they be replaced with Text?
Do I just need to "get used to using it" and wait for "muscle memory" to kick in - so I'm not even looking at what they are?

Re: Inventor - Barely visible Radial Menu icons
This is a known issue (internally tracked as PMSW-465) when running Inventor in "light mode".
Try the following procedure:
Try the following procedure:
- Exit Inventor.
- Uninstall 3DxWare 10.
- Start Inventor and switch it to dark mode.
- Exit Inventor.
- Install 3DxWare 10 (latest version is available from here).
- Start Inventor, load the documents that you usually work with (Part, Assembly) and wait for the icons to come up (the add-in needs about a minute working in the background to cache everything it needs).
- Once the icons are shown with darker colours, switch the application back to light mode.

Thank you, ngomes.
Inventor is already running in dark mode.
I just added a cadmouse to the existing spacemouse - and updated to the latest 3DxWare.
I was tempted to do a complete wipe and re-install for the workstation...
...it's about 3 years old and has multiple installed copies of AutoCAD and Inventor for the last few releases.
The new 2025 ACAD & Inv are now available so stripping it all back and a fresh install sounds like the way forward.
Thanks for the advice
