So hopefully this will have an easy answer. On every video tutorial I have seen and on a few other Macs running Fusion, components (and maybe bodies too, although I have not checked) are automatically color coded when modeling, presumably for ease of differentiating parts. However everything I've been creating for a while now is transparent, with just line structures visible. I thought maybe it was controlled by the "component color cycling" toggle under inspect, however all that seems to do is add color coding to the timeline and browser items. I have attached a picture of this with color cycling toggled on. I would greatly appreciate any help on getting models color coded! I'm relatively new to 3D design and most of my designs to this point were simple enough that the lack of shading or color coding between components didn't bother me, but now the transparent line structures are getting too messy to make sense of. I end up having to toggle visibility off on pretty much everything but what I am immediately working on to make sense of structures.
Component And/Or Body Coloring Under Model
Accepted solution
You probably by mistake have enabled Wireframe in the Display settings. If you select shaded, or shaded with visible edges you;ll see solid objects.
If you want the components automatically color coded, this can be enabled in the "Inspect menu"
If that's to much color and you only want to have the components in the browser tree and timeline color coded you can turn color cycling off agin in the inspect menu and can"turn on component color swatch" in the options, following the gear symbol in the lower right corner o the Fusion 360 screen.
