Presentation File Looks Different than Assembly File

I am trying to make a presentation file from an assembly, but I can't get the presentation model to look like the assembly model! I have ensured that the lighting was the same, the representations were the same, and everything else I can think of. I have pasted a view of each model to show the difference. The presentation went as far as to exclude paint I have applied to the housings (at the part level) from the assemblies. Could Someone explain why this would happen?

Its possible that your current lighting styles between the 2 files are out of sync even though they are the same name..

If the IAM is correct and you have "use style library" set to yes in your project file then in the iam go to manage tab and press save in the styles and standard section..

If it shows "Grey Room" there then change it to "yes" for save to library.. (if nothing comes up in the list or if it does then proceed as follows.)

Then go into your ipn file and hit the "update" button in that same style and standard section (edit.. just noticed there is no manage tab in the ipn but that section is now in the tools tab in the ipn) so that the grey room lighting style there is in sync with the other..

That should cause both to be in sync that that "may" be all thats going on there..

Now I also see that the views are not exactly the same and the angle of the lighting could be all thats different there.. But I think its more than that..
