7.6.8.7.  Feature attributes...

  1. Click on the context menu command Feature attributes.... [Feature attributes...]

    -> The area attributes [Face attributes] docking window opens.

  2. Click on the plus button.

    -> The Add attribute dialog box opens.

  3. Set an attribute for color or render material.

    (To create render material, see also Section 5.9.2.8.1.2, “ Edit material window for 3D preview ” ).

    -> The Area attributes [Face attributes] dialog box opens. (In this example, the "Color" attribute was selected).

  4. Select the desired color and confirm with OK.

    -> The feature is colored.

[Note]Note

There are several ways to color components. The following sequence also represents the hierarchy. Area color therefore overwrites feature color and component color.

  • Area color: Area colors are set to selected areas in PARTdesigner.

    Select an area and call up the context menu command Area attributes... [Face attributes...] context menu command. See Section 7.7.1.2, “ Face attributes ”.

  • Feature color: Feature colors are set to entire features in PARTdesigner (e.g. an extrude). All areas created by this feature are then colored.

  • Component color:

    Part colors are set in PARTproject via render properties [Render attributes] (see Section 5.9.2.8, “Menu item: Render properties ” ). The whole part is colored.
