Set and Select own Coatings
With TD Sketcher version 16.4, we have introduced the option of individually selecting standard coatings for each tool. The coating was not only stored in the tool data, but also the tool drawing was completed according to the coating color. Starting with the version 16.10 of TD Sketcher, it is also possible to add own coatings to the selection.
Open the coating editor via "Extras" / "Coatings" and add new coatings. As an abbreviation, enter the coating material, e.g. "AlCrN". The name may contain the exact description or your description of the coating. Finally, select the fill color of the tool on the drawing from the color palette.
For the coating colors to be displayed in the drawing according to the specifications, you should set the automatic color fill on coating color in TD Sketcher.
