Presentation customizationThe RISE Editor allows you to customize how various objects are presented in model drawings. The available settings are the same regardless of whether you're editing the convention of a specific model or a reusable convention in your conventions file. The snapshot below is taken when editing the conventions of a model.
The presentation convention is applied when adding an object to a drawing. You may override the convention settings for any object. This is done directly in the drawing by setting the object attributes. Read our article on
color encoding to get more details on how to use colors when modeling.
