Detection color

In addition, there is the detection color (formerly known as element detection color), which you can specify using the Options - Desktop environment - Display - Representation. By default, the detection color is set to red (like the selection color).

The detection color is used as follows:

• Color of elements found by Find and Select Elements (Edit menu)
• Color of outlines detected when you enter bending shapes in the engineering modules
• New: transparent color of areas measured using Measure Area
• New: transparent color used to identify 3D surfaces in Extrude, Slice, Unfold Shell and Delete Surfaces
