How do you get the color for the driving and offset suface to show up in the drawing?. The model shows the white and green sidefor the driving and offset surface but they do not appear in the drawing.



Creo 2 M130



TIA

Joe,


Funny you should ask... Because I was wondering the opposite. My drawing shows the green face and I don't want it to. I don't see a setting to change it though I must admit that I didn't look very hard. I'm guessing it a drawing configuration.

Curiouser and curiouser. I don’t see a green face in the model but I do on the drawing (Creo 2 M130). I assume there’s a config.pro option somewhere that’s controlling it in the model, but I have no idea what it is. It could be either a config.pro option or a drawing dtl option that controls display on the drawing; again, I don’t see what it is.

Here is what I figured out. Have to set the view display to wireframe to see the green/white side. My formed views now show the green/white side but the flat pattern still shows green on both sides.

Also in the system colors the driving surface has to be set (see below)
