making the assembly and the part of the same color

Hi!

I need to make the part and the assembly of the same color.

They are not.
See the images below.

The assembly is attached.

Thank you in advance

Hi @Anonymous,

You just need to match up the lighting styles between your assembly and part environments, one is on two lights the other is on grey room. If you set them both to the same setting then they'll look the same.

Hi!

Unfortunately, it doesn't work this way. 

When I  match up the lighting styles for the assembly and for the parts the result is different.

For the parts, it works one way, for the assembly it works another way.

Please take a look at the images

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous,

Are the same appearance and are shadows enabled for either of them, if shadows are enabled then disable them.

With the files you provided:

The colours are near enough identical, the background is the only difference.

Thanks for your help.

=I have tried to set all shadows off, it didn't work

=The background in my application is set to white

=I have submitted 2 part files and one assembly.

 

Within the assembly, there is no difference.

 

The difference is between the assembly and the part files.

 

For my project, the colors should be the same

 

Thanks again!

Hi! Sorry, I marked Leo's reply as the solution. I took a closer look. This is about the lighting style difference. The parts are using "Grey Room" lighting style, while the assembly is using "Two Lights" (for performance purpose).

Simply change lighting style for the assembly to "Grey Room" (View -> Lighting Style). Then they will look the same.

Many thanks!
