Change color in sub-assembly (override from top assembly)

[Anonymous]

I have no idea on how to solve this problem.

What i want is this code:

Component.Color("023512-15:1") = Farve

to work on parts in a subassembly

my first intuision was this, but didn't work:

Component.Color("023512-18:1", "023512-15:1") = Farve

What should i do?

it should be:

Component.Color("023512-18:1", "023512-15:1") = "Farve"

(it should be written like a string so with the "")

and Farve should be an existing color

Rule Compile Errors in Farve, in 023512-00.iam

Error on Line 24 : Der er for mange argumenter til 'Public Property Color(componentName As Object) As String'.

i get this error

Also, The is a mutiValue list of colors so it should be wothout "", as far as i know.

Hello Mikael,

look at my assembly.

the colors are cashed, so they exist.

look at the rules, these change the colors.

if it doesn't work for you, maybe you can share you assembly/part with the code you use, and I will look at it.

I also need the .ipt files, if i should open your .aim.

Anyhow, I think the problem occurs in the Pattern i have. the component i want to change color of is in an assembly in a pattern.

and good suggestions?
