Appearance Overrides

Appearance overrides can be made for a body group or individual components within bodies. Appearance overrides affect only the top-level view representation.

To override the appearance of a body group:

  1. Select the body group in the graphics region or browser.
  2. On the Quick Access toolbar, click the Appearance drop-down arrow and scroll to the appropriate appearance, then click. The body of components changes appearance.

To override the appearance of a single component in a body group:

  1. In the browser, click and expand the group node where the component resides.
  2. Select the component in the browser.
  3. On the Quick Access toolbar, click the Appearance drop-down arrow and scroll to the appropriate appearance, then click. The component changes appearance, but the remaining parts in the group do not.
Note: Within body groups, you can select multiple components and change their color at the same time.
