Assigned Names for faces Change Color using Ilogic or API

[Andrew_Burnett]

I am looking for a way that probably doesn't exist.  I want to change the color of a face in a part file using the assigned name for the face.  Is there any code that will allow you to do this?

You can do this with the NamedEntities iLogic API. Here's a sample (which requires that a few appearance assets already exist in the part).

Dim partDoc As PartDocument = ThisDoc.Document
Dim namedEntities = iLogicVb.Automation.GetNamedEntities(partDoc)
Dim face0 As Face = namedEntities.FindEntity("Face0")
face0.Appearance = partDoc.AppearanceAssets(2)

Thank you for the quick response.  It worked great.
