Change color of STEP file

sbromley — Wed, 04 Apr 2018 07:33:31 GMT

I've opened a STEP file into Inventor but I'm unable to change the colour.

I've tried the appearance overide and then tried to change the colour but it keeps reverting back to the original colour.

File attached as an ipt file.

Just simply Go to Tools tab Materials and Appearances panel, click Clear and select all to clear all overrides before assigning any new, hope it works.
