Use Customize Design / Context > Background and Display Colors to change design background and display colors.

In addition to background color or fabric, display colors for stitches, needle points, object shapes, and grid are part of the colorway definition. Change them if the default display color is not visible against the current colorway. The Background and Display Colors dialog includes a Display Colors panel.
