black & white viewport

[Ema Gia]

Hello everyone, 

 

I need to present a viewport in black and white, except for one layer that needs to be in colours. 

How can I do this?

 

Thanks!

You need to use the Layer Colours options that can be accessed by pressing the Viewport's Layers button. By default, I think all Layer Colours are set to Black and White, so it should be very quick to override all the layers except the one you want to remain in colour.

I still don't know what this is depicting:

Layer Colour Overrides. Yes, I know it seems somewhat abstract!

Thanks for your help Mark. I followed your advice but it partially worked. The picture and the symbols on the plan are on the same layer but only the picture is in colour, I am not able to get the symbols in colour, tried a few times but nothing changed. 

Do you know if there is another way to make it work? is there any other setting to change?

thank you very much!
