What is meant by "default" color? The default color is the color applied when members are added in a full-featured SDS2 program such as SDS2 Detailing. The colors of individual materials can be changed by users of the full-featured SDS2 program by selecting a different " Color " on that material's edit window. For bolts, the color can be changed by switching the bolt " Class " from ' Field ' to ' Shop ' or vice-versa. |
