Laminate Composites > Creating a global layup > Draping global plies over the model
Change the color spectrum for the fiber orientation display
In the Simulation Navigator, right-click a global layup node and choose Display Fiber Orientation Options.
In the Fiber Orientation Options dialog box, from the Spectrum list, select the color display method.
(Optional) If you selected Stoplight from the Spectrum list, modify the value for percentage of the lock angle at which the ply fiber angle is displayed in yellow in the Yellow Point box.
Click OK.
