When opening part files from an outside source, a lot of times the existing color scheme and scene displayed, which may have worked great for the project it came from, does not show well for our purposes. What is the quickest way to remove all of the extra colored scenes and display the part in SW default color.
Existing Scene
Default Scene
You can return the Part to the default color by right-clicking on the Part name at the top of the tree, clicking on the drop-down beside the Appearances icon, and choosing "Remove All Part Appearances".
I believe this button will take care of the background, but I'm not sure.
I'm wondering if it's a document vs system issue. I have done the "remove part appearances" and it does change part colors to default, but I can't quite get at the scene well enough to put it back to default. And, I would wonder if there is a quick way, such as a macro, to hot key the total change to default.
Edit: I'll work on the macro part, see what I can come up with.
If you need it on repeated basis then you can write a macro to take care of that
