IronHorse Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I use Inventor 2011 (32-bit) at my work. I create different parts as solids in my .ipt file. I alot different colours to my solids. But when I create a real assembly by using Make components, the solids (wich are now parts) lose their colours. I have to reassign these again?

rdharvey Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 if you are bringing previously modelled parts which have been assigned colours they should stay with the part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronHorse Posted November 10, 2010 Author Share Posted November 10, 2010 if you are bringing previously modelled parts which have been assigned colours they should stay with the part. Im not sure I understand, you create .IPT file with a couple of solids. You assign different colour to each one. After you push out to assembly. And the colours dissapear when you make section of the parts in a drawing. However the colours are represented correctly if you make drawing from your .IPT file.

rdharvey Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 yeah thats because you are cutting into the part... if you are doing a section thats how it is shown i believe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
