Colors - in Change Atributes
This is something I have been trying to figure for some time. How do you, or can you add additional colors to the color palette? Currently, I have 16 colors, from 1 - Green to 16 - Black. 25 to 64 are shades of gray. Now funny thing is I have and older part file from a Cadkey Version from the late 90's that has colors up to 24. I did not add those, it probably was a template file from that version. There must be a way to do this I just don't see it. Is it an editable file within the KC directory? I don't see anything under help, except how to use the existing palette colors.

I thought about using that older file and saving it as my template, but I don't want to have to go thru and make all my file specific changes, my current templates work, and I prefer not fooling with them. Besides, I would like to learn how to do it.

RE:Colors - in Change Atributes
File - Properties - Entity Attributes as the below picture. There you can change any color by clicking on them. Make sure you save your default template (.CKT) file after adjusting the colors, so that every future new file that you open has the color scheme you want.

I have a macro that I can run that resets the color pallet back to a standard set.
It has the full 64 colors preset that way if I find an old file I can just run the macro and instantly make the old file have the same colors as the newer files.
