Hi all - I made a simple drawing of a curve and I am wondering if it is possible to change the color of some of the lines in the drawing file. I would also like to be able to change the thickness of the lines as well. If someone knows a way to do this or a better way to do this it would be greatly appreciated.

Right click ribbon, select Toolbars and then select Layers.
Add a layer by clicking New button. Give it a name, set the color and line thickness as you like:

In your drawing select the line you need to change its color, in property manager under Layer, select the layer you just added.

I like using layers to color components in assembly drawings.

Agreed. I think that using layers is superior. I was just giving other options.

Both methods are good, depending on the situation.
