Change Color of Faces

Change Color of Faces

Change Color of Faces

(OP)
We are using NX 7.5 What is the best way of selecting tangent faces to change the color of these faces?

When you go to edit object and filter for faces we do not get the selection option of tangent faces. We can only select these face one by one.

We tried using group faces in Synhronous but we can not change the color of the faces. It selects the faces but there is no option to change the color.

Thanks

Shane

RE: Change Color of Faces

There's nothing in NX 7.5 that would help, at least not without writing some NX Open code, however, starting with NX 8.5 you'll be able to edit the color of 'features' which while it's not exactly what you're looking for, it will probably help with what you're doing. For example, it will be very easy to change the color of all the blends on a model in one easy step.
