NX6 Drawing defaults

NX6 Drawing defaults

NX6 Drawing defaults

(OP)
I've made some changes to my Defaults and there is one change I want to Undo but I do not know where to look...

When I create a drawing and drop my 1st view on the sheet I then hit the [Load All Defaults] button to apply my setting.

The problem is this, Somewhere I changed how the part colors are displayed. All sheets and solids are the same color on my screen(Curves are not effected) and when I Plot them, they stay the same color regardless of whether or not I use the {use part colors} option...

Any Ideas?  I am currently out of maintenance with GTAC so I cant call them. I'd rather not Reinstall the app as I like all of the other 'Defaults' I have setup...

Attached is a Screenshot of my drawing and model screens for reference.

Thanks
Rob

 

RE: NX6 Drawing defaults

I think you will find what you are looking for in the view style. The various line types (visible lines, hidden lines, etc) are set to use that dark blue color; if you hold the control button and select the blue color it will turn it off and use the part color instead. Change your drawing template(s) and save them, the next drawing you do should be OK.
