AVEVA Marine uses inbuilt colors for different kinds of parts. The colors may differ between different types of views. It is possible to override the system defined colors of components by assigning a color to the keyword COL[OUR] in the relevant statements.
The syntax of the color clause is like this:
COLOUR = <colour>
where <colour> can take on one of the following values:
GREEN
BLACK
CYAN
BLUE
MAGENTA
RED
YELLOW
WHITE
If the keyword is left out the system defined colors will be used as described in the table below. The components for which the colors can be controlled are those that result in parts (except plates), that means, stiffeners, pillars, flanges, brackets, clips (collars) and doubling plates. All components generated by one and the same statement will get the defined color.
Example:
STI, PRO=20,150,12 … /CON=15, CUT=2100, COLOUR=BLACK;
