        Thanks Tavi πŸ‘

          so you want the edge have the same color/material as the face ?

                What Csaba shows works pretty well, too. The colored lines in this drawing have no faces associated with them. It's simply layer associations.

                  Maybe i'm a dumbass about this but here's my request...

                  I've an organic mesh painted red with Colour by material 'on'

                  I place that mesh in Layer 1 which is green

                  When i set Colour by Layer the Colour Edge by Material remains

                  So Green Face and Red Edge

                  Possible?

                    I met you and I'm pretty sure you're not a dumbass.

                    So here's what I got.

                    color by layer1.jpg

                    Color By Material

                    color by layer.jpg

                    Color By Material AND Color By Layer

                    I get the same thing if I make a component of the shape, leave the geometry on Layer 0 and associate only the component with layer 1. Is it possible the lines are associated with a different layer than the faces?

                      Same as me. Is it a styles feature?
