Changing vectors color?

Post by Toni CM »

Hi guys.
Is it possible to change the color of vectors in 2D view? I think it would be useful to distinguish them when the drawing is too crowded or the lines too close together.
If not, do you think it would be a sensible request to Vectric?

Separate your vectors in layers and change color for the layer, that is how I do it.

Yes. Layers can be assigned different colors and vectors placed on those layers. Click on the layers tab, add layers, and click on a little square black box to assign a color.
You can also click on the little question mark at the top left when the layers tab is open for more information.
Good judgement comes from experience.
