Hello ,

I would need an “advanced” style that allows me to choose which labels use their assigned colors and which elements retain their original color or texture.

If such a style could be created, it would be really useful for project presentations.

I’d add that the ability to change the color of multiple labels at once would be veeeery handy.

Have a great day, everyone! Happy drawing!

(Please excuse me if this idea has already been suggested.)

Today the workaround for mixing styles is to create several scenes with the different styles and the objects you want to show visible and then stack the views on a LayOut page.

this extension is not quite providingwhat you are after, but I thought it’s worth adding to this conversation:

I hadn’t thought of that. Good idea.  
That said, I would have liked to be able to share the model with a client so they could navigate through the scenes and the 3D model using views saved in “hybrid” styles.
