Color tables |
Y, but when V4 model objects are not opaque, their colors cannot be
correctly seen in CATIA V5. Therefore you need to read the colors on the
Faces. To be able to browse these colors in CATIA V5, you can use this
variable: set
IRD_SURFACE_COLOR=1. This functionality is not activated by
default and it may be quite costly in terms of CPU (high CPU consumption)
and performance regression. |
