By default, the model is visualized in IFC colors. If you wish to define a more detailed color map, you can use classification colors. You can define the color based on any property, such as IFC Entity, Type or Discipline.
Notice
Only one classification at a time can be used as the default model colors.
To use classification colors:
-
Open a classification.
-
To open Classification settings, click
in the Classification view toolbar.
-
In the Settings tab, mark the checkbox for Use for Model Colors:
-
Click OK.
-
The color of the components in the Model view are now based on the classification color, and this will be retained even after using Show All (
