Hi,
I used to grab 3Dcontentcentral model. I usually download STEP AP214 files... When I open the step file into a new FREECAD file, colors sound good. However, when I define this model in freecad PCB, it's read... only in grey !!! even with "colorized part" checked at the import interface... Any ideas ?
attachment : image of PCB after FREECAD-PCB routine + IMPORT of STEP file of the same component to see the difference
Regards
To go further on, when I create a cube in freecad, puting some colors and exported it to STEP file to use it as a step model for freecad-pcb, those step files are imported with color.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
