Hi,
I am trying to select one surface of a part and change its colour. Is this possible I can only select the whole part?
Thanks
Hi @user4188 thanks for the question.
Due to the way we convert your files into simple meshes, this is not currently possible, essentially there is no concept of a face. I have added you to an enhancement to be able to do this / split parts up, but that in itself brings issues when it comes to updating.
At the moment I can only suggest creating a copy of the surface in your CAD application (i would actually try an offset just so there’s no clash) and making sure the option to bring surface bodies is ticked.
I would also like the ability to color faces
Otherwise can you tell me how to create the copied surface in Fusion360?
In Fusion I believe you can do a surface offset of 0 which would copy it. Since that is a separate body you it should behave its own distinct item in Cadasio, assuming you have the option to bring surfaces bodies through (its an option in the addin). Though you may find some graphical descrepancies since you will have two surfaces on top of each other, so it maybe better to offset it by a small amount if possible.
I found this video which maybe useful for you
