is there away to change the color of an assy. while its a sub-assembly, but then when it is that top assy. is used in another assy. it will link back to its orginal colors. so i only wish to change the color of the assy. in one level.
i.e.
if i change assy1's color at assy2's level can i have assy1 return to its original colors when i insert assy2 into assy3?
Hi Tony
Create a new display state of your sub assembly and add a colour to the sub assembly in that display state, you can then use that display state for that sub assembly in your top level assembly and use the original display state when viewing your sub assembly
To change the display state of the sub assembly in the top assembly, right click on the assembly in the feature tree and go to propeties
