Strange gold colour sometimes appears when making a surface loft/patch

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have run into this strange thing recently where a loft or patch becomes gold. There seems to be nothing wrong with the model but seemingly at random a patch or loft will come out gold. I have tried just changing the appearance and it does not work to change it. Does anyone know what causes this?Screen Shot 2020-10-13 at 6.29.54 PM.png

surface bodies, by default, are rendered so that the "front side" is displayed in the part color, and the "back side" is rendered in this yellow/gold color.  You can disable it with this preference setting:
