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.
