NX 7.5 "Edge colour"?

[RhysMog]

I have an assembly drawing in which I would like all the parts do be displayed with their face colours from Modelling.
I have set the Wireframe Colour Source to 'From Face' in the style menu and this seems to work well. The only exception is a black face with orange text on it. The text takes the edge colour of the black face around it, and not the orange faces within it. Is there any way to change this so that it stands out on a black drawing background?

Thanks

I assume that you're working with a Shaded view on the Drawing, correct? If so, while in the Drawing, go to...

Edit -> View -> View Dependent Edit...

...select the view of interest and when the dialog becomes active, select the middle icon in the row of 'Add Edits' icon, labeled 'Edit Shaded Objects'. You will now be asked to select the face(s) that you wish to assign a different color to, after which you can select a new color in the 'Shade Edits' section of the dialog and hit OK a couple of times and you're there.

Hi John,
I'm not using a shaded view actually. It's just a wireframe view in which I've set the line colours to match the model using RMB -> Style -> General tab -> Wireframe colour source -> From face.
As it happens, your solution still kind of worked. I went to View dependent edit and clicked the second icon, Edit Entire Objects and set the line colour to the correct one under Wireframe Edits.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
