ECL Viewer 7 background color not saving - proper registry entry?

[Former Member]

Hi,

This is with regards to ECL viewer 7 in SAP GUI 7.20. I want to be able to save the personal settings for background color to white since it does not save for some reason.

I have found threads such as this:

which tell me to add a registry key "Background" to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/SAP/VCT_Retained/6.1/Common/de/ImageViewUtils to store the settings. However the version in the thread mentioned is for ECL viewer 5 and 6.

We tried to change the "6.1" to "7.0" and "7.1" (since it was patched with patch 1) and "de" to "en" and putting the key there with no luck. I have tried searching SAP notes but have found none relevant to ECL 7.0. Does anybody have information on how we can save background color for ECL 7.x?

Thanks and Regards,

Nico

Hi Nico,

we solved it with this key:

HKCU\Software\Siemens\PLMVis_Retained\8.2\Common\de\ImageViewUtils

Background DWORD 00FFFFFF
