Hi. I have a small problem. I have same component painted red or yellow and it changes code. Can i manage color as parameter of .prt? I have to use it for render use, i'm not interest in a parameter "text". Thank you.

As far as I know, you can't do this directly with an ordinary parameter. However, one technique is to copy your outside surfaces into a surface feature, and give that surface feature a color. Do that again as many times as you need, then turn the various colored surface features "on and off" in your family table.
