  • green key line using Omega/composer ?

    Posted by Neil Churchman on October 18, 2008 at 6:25 am

    Really think this is a simple problem to solve if your a regular user of composer……..

    When we are creating and shape or even text, it usually shows up a black keyline in ‘wireframe’ mode which is fine, cos we can fill colour as we want to, but sometimes the keyline is green which causes us problems to work with.

    Not sure if we’ve accidentally switched to a different ‘colour fill’ mode but we can’t figure out what’s going on and how to get back to the black keyline 🙄

    Neil,

    Select the shapes, then hold down "ctrl" and press "1" (remove fills), hold down "ctrl" and press "2" (remove outlines).

    Now you should have your black shapes back.

    Regards,

    Neil,

    Is the problem the colours on the screen for you or what they are actually doing(cuts/fills etc)’cause you can change the colours of the lines to any one you want.

    check you are not using the foil pallette, this often is marked in green outlines

    If there is no fill selected (only cut) by default shape will be in black, if shape will be printed and cut – green, if only printed – red.

    doesn’t sound too technical to change then- we’re give it a try this morning

    if you don’t have a gerber edge, get rid of the foil pallette otherwise this will happen again

    Hi Neil
    just select the shape arrange cuts off.
    As far as I know the green is the cut line on whatever shape it is on.
    Have also found that the cut line comes back if I have played with the shape.
    Cheers Mike
