Enables you to define the colors of each conductor in a cable, and whether the cable consists of a single set of conductors or repeating sets where the cables are identified by the same colors.
Color pattern tag
Select an existing color pattern tag or type a new tag name after selecting New.
New
Select to define a new color pattern.
Delete

Pattern type
Select the required option:
Individual colors
Assign a single color to each conductor. If the number of conductors in the Cable Common Properties dialog is greater than the number of colors you define in this dialog, the software does not assign colors to the extra conductors.
Repeating colors
Assign color to the conductors according to the sequence of each conductor. If the number of conductors in the Cable Common Properties dialog is greater than the number of colors that you define in this dialog, the software assigns the colors repeatedly in sequence to all the conductors. This way, you can define colors to apply to multiple sets of conductors.
