    Default Changing color of extrude

    Hi,

    Can you please have a look on the attached picture, in Extrude tool is there possibility to change the color of the depth dimension? My target would be just a simple brown, however also good question can be added bitmap fill on the sides? But if that would be brown instead of the current gray, that is absolutely okay for my targets, as I can see sure there is no line applied on the object so that should be controlled somewhere else

    Hi,
    to change the color of extrude it is determined by line color so if you want brown edges just make line color brown.

    Thanks the answer, but in this way applying line + bitmap fill on the surface, then can not be avoid that line dimension which is on the attached picture?

    Currently there is no way to have the program map a bitmap to the sides of an extrusion. There are work arounds that involve doing it manually with transparencies and or the mold tool but this is a feature that is definitely lacking.

    Anyway finally found how to change that default grey colour in Extrude tool around the object (so it comes even there is no line width) , has to click on Show lights button and dropping the brown color to those
