How to change colors used in legend

[PatrickEC]

I am using 'Section - legend by colors' from the Display dialog. Is there a way to control the used colors, because as you can see in the picture by default Robot picked the same color for both materials.

I'm sorry but this currently cannot be done. I have added this request to the wish list.

Is this feature was added in latest version of ARSA?

[Artur.Kosakowski]

No, there is not such possibility in Robot 2015.

[zrilek]

is it possible in ver. 2016 and 2017?

Dear Robot users,

I am interested in the solution of how is it possible to change the color in the legend of beam section.

Is there solution with version 16 ?

Thanks in advance,

Best regards,

Frédéric

This can be done by editing the `color.ini` file in C:\Users\<username>\Appdata\Roaming\Autodesk\Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional 2019\CfgUsr.

You can choose 30 colors by changing the RGB values named AppSec1 to AppSec30 for the relevant display style.

Note to create a new display style, you also need to edit `font.ini` in the same folder. The files are read-only but this can be unticked in their properties. 

Don't forget to back up the original before editing!
