issue w/ drawing

[hath27]

I have an odd issue w/ a drawing I just created. At some point in the creation, I noticed that one part in the assembly that I am dimensioning has turned red. It is red in all views. But its only one part in an assembly of 20+ parts. I have reviewed the part, the assembly and i have no errors/issues.
Can anyone explain?

You mean the part in the graphics area of the drawing is shaded red in the views?

 

[hath27]

yes, thats correct.

 

[CorBlimeyLimey]

Do you have the views set to shaded or outline?

What graphics card and driver are you using?

 

[hath27]

outline mode
nvidea quadro fx 4600

Make sure the video driver for your OS and computer vendor is listed at

?

Are you seeing any other graphical glitches?

What happens if you change the views to another viewing mode?

Which OS and SW version and SP?

If you click the >> in the feature manager tree that will help you with colors. See if you can find a hidden color in the assembly that might be showing up in the drawing... seems odd though, because you should not be able to color just one part.
