Newbie Solid Question

Recommended Posts

Hello. This is sort of a beginner question so bear with me. I am used to working with surfaces. Trying to save myself time and work off the solid model and save a step (create surfaces). I was playing today and could not figure out how to change a solid face color. With a lot of my tool paths I am used to using the quick masking and selecting all surfaces by color. I would like to do the same but with solid faces. I would like to go through once and color things so that I can select them quickly.  I imagine there is a way, but for the life of me can't seem to figure it out. Can someone give me some direction?

Goto the Model Prep Tab and choose "Change Face". This will allow you to change solid surface colors. If that does not work you may have to click on "Clear All" next to the "Change Face" button and then it should work for sure.
