Hi,
I have a case shown below, I need place 5 LED with different color, Now I have to make 5 parts with each color, any way use only one pattern but show different color? I tried use Display State or configuaration/Advanced Option/Specific Color, but didn't work. I don't know why?
Thanks

Ping,
You can manually select the bodies or surfaces and change the appearances of them.
If you are looking for a way for them to be patterned and it automatically change the color
short of a macro there isn't a way.
RC the surface, select the face in the "appearances", pick the color you want.
You can do an assembly level appearance overide...
If you change color on one part of pattern, it change all parts, still same color, how to change only one part of pattern, shown on picture. Thanks
2 ways;
in the part, make one config for each color you need. in the assembly parttern, go to the component properties of each instance in the pattern and select the appropriate config - you will need to change the selection to "used named config" rather than "use same as parrent".
or
set different colors in the assembly as David suggests - what you click on the part, and then select the "beach ball" make sure you select the top option (the one with the assembly icon) this will limit the color choice to the instance selected in that assembly.
Create a configuration for each colour at the part level, and after the pattern is created, edit each instance to the correct config.

I tried to use config on the part, make sure click "Link Display States to Configurations" , create different color config on part level, then change the part config on the pattern one by one on assembly level, it works. Thanks.
