Hi
how it would be possible to change solid body color on creation to something other than "Medium Steel"?
i found an option on Gateway in customer defaults. is this the only way?

No, you can also change it in "Menu - Preferences - Object"

JavadM,

How you change the color will have varying effects. If you just want to do it as needed, Ronald's method will work fine. If you wish to change the color of all solids permanently, then you can either edit your customer defaults (for files using the Blank or no template) or if using a template, you can open the template, make the change via Ronald's suggestion and save the template.
