= SUMMARY =

This article offers a method for rendering color wireframe models (multiple models with different colors) using Depthcue.

= MORE INFORMATION =

To render color wireframe models using Depthcue, change the objects wireframe color from the desktop color box (not in Materials) located in the lower-left corner of the interface.

You can customize your palette by clicking Preferences, then Desktop Colours. Before rendering your object in Depthcue mode, select the appropriate view (click the A, B, C, or D view; the selected view window highlights in red), and select the “Depthcue” rendering type from Render Setup.

When the render is complete, the objects appear with the color you selected for them. Now you have multiple-colored wireframe objects, which are colored independent of each other.
