Feature-Color, No longer an option??
Feature-Color, No longer an option??
(OP)
It maybe that my memory is placing tricks upon me but I have the following problem. A collegue of mine is trying to change the color of a feature in a simple part. And SW doesn't respond. He doesn't want to change color of all the faces one by one so it really is kinda annoying. I think this used to be possible. We both use SW2005 SP3.0
Are we the only one or can you reproduce the problem??
Kind regards,

As I said above, you may have to pick the multi-bodies, surfaces, features etc... one at a time and verify that there is no color assigned to it within that respective assembly or within the part.
In the future, do no assign color to parts from within an assembly file. And while in the part file, only apply a color to the entire part (not features, faces, etc...)

I never change color in assemblies, only in the part itself and in parts I only color solid-bodies. So I dont ever have trouble with "lost" colors.
But still my problem exist, maybe its a document property?

Try doing a clean uninstall and reinstall of the system

Hierarchy of color changing in a part:
Face
Feature
Part
Face will take persidence over all that are below it and on down the list.
