Actual Cycling to Component Color Cycle Color, as in reshuffling the colors.

Actual Cycling to Component Color Cycle Color, as in reshuffling the colors.

Hello, 
It would be great if there was an option to reshuffle or do actual Cycling of the colors, often you get multiple components with the same color that happen to be adjacent, which can become confusing and somehow defeats the purpose.

 

If there was an option to reassign the colors either randomly or specifically this would help in having a way to address this when it happens.

 

Thanks!

I just discovered how to do this, in a component without children there is an option that says "Cycle component color" that does exactly this when the component has children the option is also there but it does nothing(?).

Sorry for cluttering as this already exists, however someone else might find this useful.

Thanks Juan, I wanted this too and didn't realise it had been implemented. The option doesn't seem to exist for bodies, but I have it for components. For subassemblies the option does nothing as you say, but it works if you drill down to the individual component.

There is some quirkiness though - copied components change colour as a group, but I found a couple of copied components that did not. The colour could be cycled on either component, but only the first one would change whether you cycled the colours on the first component or the second.
