I have a complex assembly of released parts in windchill with part appearances defined.

I created a new assembly with this assembly in it.  I want to change the assembly/part colors to all grey and insert a "colored ay" into it to show hose routings on a drawing.  The drawing will show shaded AY.

So i can change all the colors how i want, but when i save the assembly and reopen it, it defaults back to the set part colors, which is not what i want.  Is there a config setting to use the assembly appearance colors and over ride part appearance just for this assembly?  Or a way to do it

Hi,

  • open new assembly
  • assign color from appearance library to sub-assembly (select sub-assembly node in model tree)
  • save assembly
  • that's all

If the above procedure does not work, then:
