Hi,
I'm working with Catia V4.24. When I open a model exported by Catia V5 (or Pro-Engineer) sometime I loss many colors in color table. How to redefine the color for model in this case please!

Thank you in advance,

colors are assigned to numbers, if you open your "credit-card" menu. (right-left combintaion mouse buttons) select col then you can adjust each color number to a diferent color by adjusting the amount of the 3-colors (0-15). once you change the colors to what you want, you need to save the color table. Then goto standard (side menu, not the std on bottom) >color>table>save then I think you have to hit yes. then write the model, each individual model has its own color table.

A much easier approach is to have a "start-up" model with the colors set as you want.
Then merge your catia v4 with bad colors into it.
 
Thank you so much,
Regards,
