Resetting/removing all display properties in an assembly
Resetting/removing all display properties in an assembly
(OP)
I have an assembly where various parts have been assigned various different display colours.
Is it possible to remove all these properties in the entire assembly in one go?
Regards

I just remember a single button in the Display Properties in the ANT that was there to reset all the component colors to they originally were.

To the Toolmaker, your nice little cartoon drawing of your glass looks cool, but your solid model sucks. Do you want me to fix it, or are you going to take all week to get it back to me so I can get some work done?

This does however not seem to resolve my problem.
When I now want to assign different colours to objects, the changes seem to have no effect. I have tried this both in the assembly by selecting solid bodies and trying to change their colours and also by making particular components in the assembly the display part and then trying to change colours, to no avail.

If I select a body and make sure that the 'Apply to all faces of Selected Body' under the display properties tab is checked, the changes to take affect!

As for the notion that this could be done using some sort of single gesture inside the Assembly Navigator, I have NO recollection of there EVER being a feature like that. But if you really NEED to do this by selecting a single button, you could always create a Journal that could then be executed from an icon added to one the ribbon tabs using Customization.
