Colour change

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have created an assembly which contains a numeric LED array. The digits are specified as being green, so my model replicates this. I need to make the assembly into one PART (which is the bought in condition) when I derive the assembly into a part, the display figures turn red. If I then further derive one of the arrays into the part, they turn back to green.

The assembly also contains models of yellow LEDs in the derived condition, these appear as green. If I further derive one of them, they go back to yellow, but the display goes to red.
This is a trivial thing and easily fixed by adding the correct colour to the relevant surfaces, but I feel it shouldn't be happening.

In the derive dialogue have you tried enabling the colour overrides from parent option? That may sort out the problem for you.

Thanks Mike, but default is setting is that. I fixed it cosmetically and then suppressed the link to the assembly. Just wierd!
