Entering the Third Dimension

Changing the Color of Your Model

You may also want to change the color of your model.

To change the color:

1. On the right side of the Standard toolbar, click the down arrow next to As

Material.

2. In the drop-down list of available colors and materials, select

Metal-Steel (Polished).

Note: If you changed your display settings earlier in this test drive to not

show reflections and textures, then the reflections of the different materials

will not be displayed.

Saving the Model

Now would be a good time to save your model. You are currently

working on a part within an assembly, which means the part is

active. To save the assembly and the part, you must first activate

the assembly.

1. At the top of the Browser, double-click the name of the

assembly, Assembly1.

With the main assembly active, you can now save the

assembly and the part:

2. On the Standard toolbar, click the Save tool.

3. In the Save As dialog box, type Clamp_complete

as the file name, and then click Save to save all

your changes.

4. Since the assembly contains parts, you are

prompted to decide whether to save the parts too.

Click OK again.

5. Return to the isometric view (right-click and then

choose Isometric View).
