define "color up" for those of us that don't work in your office of have access to your requirements: your file only contains flat 2D line with an elevation/height setting so there is nothing to "color up" if you don't want to just use PROPERTIES command to change the colors of the lines you've drawn.

Hi,

instead of using _EXTRUDE to give arcs or lines a thickness create closed polylines from your objects (command _PEDIT and option _JOIN).

When you now use _EXTRUDE with closed polylines you get 3D-Solid objects (which do have caps.
