colour of wave linked body
colour of wave linked body
(OP)
I sometimes add wave linked bodies into my assemblies, to help with creating parts etc.
When i do this, i change their colour to pink, so it's obvious to everyone they're not part of the assembly.
I also move them to another layer, so i can exclude them if i have to export the assembly.
My question is... Can i set it so that it will retain this colour even after an update, as at the moment, it re-inherits the parent colour

Preferences -> Modeling -> General
...and about 3/4 of the way down the dialog, change the option 'Display Properties for New Geometry' -> 'Extracted and Linked Geometry from' to 'Part Default' from 'Parent Object'.
