Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

open the outliner, select the perspective camera. go to the attribute editor. there, you should find the environment tab. under the tab, i think you will find the option to change the color of your background..

well, the environment tab is for the render view not the actual viewport
---
for viewport go to window>preferences>colors>3d views

if you are lazy like me and just want the background color to be black or a darker/lighter shade of grey....you can always use the hot key "alt+b"
