[Darkforce_the_ilogic_guy]

 We have a problem at look a lot like this, but the color is only wrong when we open the part. We havde hade this problem on 2 PC(10%) so far that i know of..., it show the standard steel color as a dark gray when you open the part .. but show the right color in the iam files. We are wokring on a fully update Inventor 2024

What lighting style is the in use in the assembly file?  Same in the part file?  If not, that would be the problem... set the assembly file to use the same lighting style as the part file.

Hi! As Sam already mentioned, this is most likely lighting style related. I suggest you standardize the lighting style that all users should use, since the active lighting style is stored in the iam/ipt file. You may want to set the desirable lighting style in the template files.

Many thanks!
