Send Feedback

Introduction

DriveWorks Solo provides the ability to drive a model's color. To do this, create and capture a custom property in the model called "DWColor" or "DWColour", for more information have a look at the Custom Properties help topic.

The result of the rule for the DWColor custom property should take the form:

Red|Green|Blue

You can use the Color function to easily create a color result, e.g.:

Color(255, 0, 0)

Returns "255|0|0" which is red.

The table below shows some standard colors.
