Simple question:
When I model a part and give it a specific appearance, then 'Saveas' to a new part name, should the new part have the same appearance as the original?
I ask because mine didn't, and I don't know whether that is because I did it wrong, or because not copying the appearance is a feature of the software.

"saveas' should duplicate whatever you have - not sure why it's an issue for you
Can you post your model here?
Thanks, Christian.
I just did a SaveAs on the same part again, to make sure it remained repeatable. Guess what: It worked fine!
I don't know what is different, but it seems like it was one of those transient 'mini-features' that we sometimes encounter in Solidworks.
Cheers,
John
