Steve_wright Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Can you add customised colours in inventor 2010 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quagga Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Hi Steve, Yes you can, first your styles have to be set to "read/write" (in the project settings). then open a part or assembly - go to manage -styles editor at the bottom left is "import" - browse to where the RAL_colors.stxml file is select and open. Then use update to update the styles in the library. If you need any metal styles just let me know, I had to make a lot of them when I was working. Cheers Al.

If not then the style is not added to your library and you will have to reload every time. re the metal styles, send me a PM with your e-mail address, and I will send them. Cheers Al.
