Edit the symbol and change the fill color for the various parts of the object.

This goes back to how you would apply material finishes or plain color to an object. The only difference here is that the "object" is a symbol made up of several objects.

To change a component about a symbol, edit the symbol to get to the "root" objects.

If you want to make the change to the instance in a drawing, edit the symbol in the drawing.

To change the color permanently, open the library file, edit the symbol, save the library file. Now, every new instance of that symbol, when pulled from the library, will reflect those made changes.

Katie,

Sorry I can't figure out how to do this. I tried VW help but didn't find anything about this.

Go to File > Open and find the Scenic Elements file (in Prog Files > VW > Libraries ..etc)

In the RB, choose the Scenic Elements file under "OPEN FILES" at the top of the RB.

Right click on the symbol and choose Edit.

Make changes to the symbol.

Save the file.

Close the file.

The next time the symbol is imported from the library file, any made changes are reflected.
