3D View Independent Member Colors

Currently, the 3D rendered view assigns colors by section type, meaning all members with the same section must share one color. This makes it difficult to distinguish existing vs. proposed members or highlight specific components during review.

Request: Allow individual members within the same section type to be assigned independent colors in the rendered view.

This would improve model clarity, QA, and communication without affecting analysis behavior.

    Thank you for posting this idea. There is certainly scope for adding additional options in the rendered 3D view to provide enhanced visuals. Please note that for now it is possible to add a 3D shape to the standard wire frame model view and those profiles can be coloured by their profile which will achieve your goal.
