Sheet metal bend lines

Hi everyone. 

Does anyone know how to set up bend lines colors. I typically make parts that have 90degree flanges going up or down. When I convert into a dxf this bend lines are represented under a "bend line" yellow layer. I would like to customize that so that bend lines up are a certain color and the bend lines down a different color. Thanks

You could write some ilogic go scan an assembly and do all this for you, or have it run on save and create the dxf with these settings vs. needing to do it manually each time.
