Color part sketches in SLDDRW files.
Color part sketches in SLDDRW files.
(OP)
Sometimes I use color sketches to add contrast to in detailed confusing part sketches (like the component silk layer of a pcb). How do I get part sketches to appear in color after I have inserted the part into a SLDDRW? When I insert my part into the drawing and turn on sketches they are never the color I set for them in the part file.

I have not found a way to have each part sketch come in as separate colors.

Color Display Mode. Click this tool to toggle between aesthetic colors (colors chosen in layers or with Line Color) and the system status colors (fully defined, under defined, and so on). Sketch endpoints and dangling dimensions are always in the system status color.

Color Display mode didnt seem to do anything.
I tried the line color command and it didnt seem to do anything either. But even if it did it would take several hours to individually select the thousands of lines and circles and use the line color command.
