To see this more clearly you can click the Appearances tab at the top of your Feature Tree and select Hierarchy in the sort order.In the part file below we have a cube with two holes and four colors applied a face color (magenta), a feature color, (yellow), a body color (green), and a part level color (purple).

A color applied at a lower level of the hierarchy will always get overridden by a color applied at an upper level. ![]() This order is known as Color Hierarchy in SOLIDWORKS. If you notice in the graphic above, there is an order that has also been repeated a couple of times so far in this guide. So how does SOLIDWORKS determine which color will take precedence if there are colors applied at each level? As mentioned earlier this will include the face, feature, body, or part level. You will then get a small drop-down menu where you will have to choose at what level you want to apply the color. To apply color in SOLIDWORKS, right-click on any face of a part and chose the Appearances icon.
