how do you change the color on a solid in Pro-E ?

question #2 - if i wanted to set the default color so that all parts
generated from then on are the new color, how do i make that adjustment
?

thanks.

Goto View -> Colors & Appearances. From this property sheet you can change the color.

One way to have all parts start out in another color other than gray would be to create a start part and define the color to be what you want.

Hope this helps, Glenn |B)

1) In Pro/e 2001

click VIEW from drop down menu

cursor down to MODEL SETUP and cursor over and click on COLOR AND
APPEARANCES. ( appearances box opens )

click ADD (appearance exitor box opens)

in the color section click on the color sq on the right (color editor
box opens)

3 ways to use color editor
(first way) COLOR WHEEL
(second) BLENDING PALETTE
(third) SLIDERS

make color pick

click CLOSE

click OK

click SET (to change whole part)
OR
if you want to change just a couple of surfaces

in the set object appearance section click on the drop down box and
choose an option (example: surfaces)

then just click on the surfaces you want to change to that color

click DONE

click SET

click CLOSE


2) I don't know (never needed to)

You'll want to save that .map file if you want it to be the same next
time you open it otherwise you'll have to change it again
