You can color objects to make them easier to distinguish in the map. The coloring is temporary and does not change the objects’ saved graphical attributes.

1. Right-click an object and select Color > Color objects. The Choose a color dialog opens.

2. Select a color and adjust the transparency if needed.

3. Press OK. The object is displayed in the selected color.

You can also select Show > Color > Color objects from the menu bar and then select an object in the map.

The following options are also available under Show > Color:

Option	Description
Color objects above	Opens the color picker for coloring related objects.
Color enhanced	Allows you to specify the line color, fill color, and width.
Color highlighted	Colors objects that are already highlighted, for example after a trace.

Select Window > Refresh (F5) to remove the coloring. This action also clears selected and highlighted objects.
