There are two places you can select your color palette

1 - This is session specific (don't remember if it is part specific even)
Menu - Preferences - Color palette

2 - For all parts you create/open
In your customer defaults . Gateway - Visualization - Color palette

hi Ronald
thanks for response,

but the question was "How change or Update an old file color system to current version of NX?"
I have a file that is created in 1999 and all working colors are different from NX 12 native files.

even when i save the file in NX 12 the color rules remain like the creation time. the problem is also about line thickness and wont be changed.
 
Hi Cowski
thanks
Your suggestion was great. But some issues remained.
It seems that colors remembered from “color box position” in color palettes. And the file needs some manual operations afterwards.
also sketch and object colors did not influenced and need to be corrected from preferences.



best regards
