Cycle Component Color function.

I know of the "Shift N" keyboard shortcut to toggle the "Display Component Colors" on/off. But... I'm looking for a way to change/cycle the color of a component without having to repeatedly left-click to activate the component (to help locate it in the Browser), then right-click the component in the Browser to bring up the dropdown menu, dragging down to "Cycle Component Color" and finally... left-click to cycle the component color. I work with assemblies with lots of components and having contrasting colors is VERY helpful, but it is ALOT of mouse work to cycle the colors until a optimal color appears. I'm hoping there is already a Keyboard shortcut available OR there would be a way to make a custom one.

Good day @billfj4045,

 

Interesting topic. To my knowledge, there isn't another way to change the colors.

Let's see if someone knows of a work around.

I agree it would be interesting to have a better UI/UX for component color cycling. And more than cycling, maybe a direct RGB color selection.
