line color in sketch

Hi,

 

I am new to fusion and I am searching for simply changing the line color in sketch since 30 minutes now. The post I could find tells something about document settings but I can't find them. Does somebody know ? Why is it so difficult? What I actually want to do is to redraw a sketch on top of an imported dxf sketch (as I can't extrude that - for whatever reason. A help at that end would appreciated as well. Thanks

I look forward to you posting a Fusion model with a model sketch with multiple colors.  I need to learn this magic trick you have.

Boo! I do not think that is what the OP wants to do.

Did exactly what @banalo stated. (See Attached - I sketched slightly offset so that you can see the trick in the "magic".)

Of course what @banalo should probably do is Divide and Conquer.

Hi,

Farben in Skizzen sind nicht frei wählbar sondern von der Voreinstellung festgelegt.

thanks- indeed this is what I wanted to have - different colors so that I can draw more easily on top of that dxf. So how did you do it, then ?

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

Any dxf will do for the demonstration, but your actual dxf for the demonstration of the  Divide and Conquer technique would be best.
