Translated Colors

[Anonymous]

Hello Board,

I am dealing with KeyCreator (CADKey) and Inventor 8.0. My issue is this: I translate a CADKey file containing colors into a SAT file. I then import it into Inventor. When it comes through in IV, it loses (or seems to) all color and all parts are in the "default" color. But, when I translate it back from IV into SAT, and open in CADKey, the original colors are still there.

Is there a way for Inventor to recognize these colors? Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Thank you in advance,
Travis Stewart
