Assign color using Design View Representation at part level

[RoyWickrama_RWEI]

Dim oApp As Inventor.Application
oApp = ThisApplication
Dim oDoc As Document
oDoc = ThisDoc.Document
Dim ocompdef As ComponentDefinition
ocompdef = odoc.ComponentDefinition

For Each oViewRep In ocompdef.RepresentationsManager.DesignViewRepresentations
	'If oViewRep.Name.Contains("Default") Then		'OK
	If oViewRep.Name = "Default" Then				'OK
	oViewRep.activate
		'DesignViewRepresen​tations.("Default").Activate
		oStockNumber = UCase(iProperties.Value("Project", "Stock Number"))
		If oStockNumber = "BASE PL" Or oBasePL = "BASE PLATE" Then
		iProperties.PartColor = "Orangre"
		End If
	End If
Next

Hi,

Since you are looking for "Default" design view representation, I assume you are working in an assembly document.

There the parts are represented by component occurrences, so you have to set their colour through that, e.g.:

Component.Color("PartWithHole2016:1") = "Orange"
