BOM Size and Color
BOM Size and Color
(OP)
I have two questions about SWBOM's
1. How do you control the size of the BOM? I have been able to change the text size and save that to a template. But when I change column or row width/height they do not get saved with the template. How do I accomplish this?
2. How do I change the color of the BOM on my drawing? I have a hard time seeing the default light green table.
Thanks in advance for your help.

2.
Look at your bom properties and see if you don't have a layer that is light green in color tied to you r bom.
If this is the case, change the layer or pick none.
The text should revert to black, as in the Solidworks text color.

note: when I use the excel based BOM it is black.

Try going through each item in the System Colors list to see if the light green color shows up anywhere.
Also experiment with the "skins" & Color Schemes to see if they have an effect.

I meant table format.
Set table format layer to none.
