OK TOW to the rescue, it was some sort of unknown CWS setting that got changed somehow (?!?!?!) as I never knew there was such menu!
Under File -> Preferences you can set up a Foreground and Background colors. NEVER CHANGE THEM from anything else than WHITE AND BLACK, like this:

I'm now back to the road.
Are there supposed to be heatsinks on the UV LED drivers? My UV LED board has thermal pads on all the drivers but no heatsinks...
i have removed the metal around the LCD screen and have switched to the FTD resin. I can get my prints to stick to the print bed but I am not able to get other layers to stick. My base layer exposure is 50 and other layers is 30. Any help would be great. Thanks
Hi @Brickmaker. Can you be more specific? How many layers are you getting to stick to the print bed? Is it only the base layers? Also, the exposure time for FTD resin is 50 seconds for base layers (3 to 5 layers), then around 10 seconds for the rest.
Welcome @Brickmaker! I'm also curious on what your issue is.
@sukhvir I have attached a picture of my settings. Attachment 1440 I have been able to get 40 of 85 layers to stick. Any help would be great. Also if you would like me to move this to the Troubleshooting page I can. Thanks
@Brickmaker, see my settings attached. I have never used anti-aliasing, so I'm not sure if that is part of the issue. Also, put your slide/Tilt value to 0 then click on AutoCalc. Can you put up a pic/stl (or send it to me) of what you are trying to print? There could be issues with your model.

I have moved the above post to the Troubleshooting thread :D
Hmmmm now that you mention it, I think I also had antialiasing enabled as per TOW visit... hmmm
I don't think the anti-aliasing would cause too much of a problem - it would just add/remove a few pixels to give a smoother print, however I personally don't think it's worth having on and always print without it. I think Brickmaker's issues may be related to length of exposure or poor supports on model.
