Appearance color isn't the same in the part as it is in the assembly

Wayne Bird Jun 28, 2016 1:39 PM

I have a part that has a specific color. When I place it in an assembly the color changes slightly. The part is the right picture, the same part in an assy is shown on the left.

Can anyone tell me how to change the assy so the color of parts don't change?

Thanks

You will have to make sure the lighting setups are identical.

Check the color settings as well

Kelvin mentioned to check your lighting.....

After all those settings match 100% then - save your part and assembly template..

Thanks for your replies and screenshots! The lighting was the culprit.
