Choosen material not showing on all of model
Choosen material not showing on all of model
(OP)
Hi all,
Just ran into something odd, I modeled a drive shaft with multiple diameters some threads and keyways. When I applied the material alloy steel the color of some of the diameters changed but not others. Has anyone run into this? I'm using simplified material so it's not textures just color change. Any ideas? Thanks,
Dennis

that removes the color assignments from all faces and features in a part. If this is something you come up against often you can get that macro and run it prior to assigning your material. I combined that macro with another on that site (Random Color) which I use all the time when I import IGES files for purchased parts in my machine designs.

I checked the display pane and no colors were assigned to any of the individual features. I downloaded and ran the macro handleman suggested. I applied the material and it worked perfectly. Now I'm not sure why but everything looks like it should. Again I love this forum.
