White or Black Screen?

I've been working on a MAC on white screen but since I have to share my files with PC users on black screen it's been an issue setting back to white screen for my use.
Is there a way for the AC to recognize my file and turn it to white screen automatically?

No, the background colour is saved in each file - it is not a system setting.
You will have to go into the 'Grids and Background' options to change it on a file by file basis.
