  MB3.
  7) Select "Center graph" by context menu.
  =>"Surface.1(..!Part1!Extrude.1)" is displayed on

  Please confirm that the geometry is the external
  reference element.
  8) Double-click "Part2".

  13) Select "Automatic" on the "Graphic Properties"
  toolbars.
  =>The blue face is not changed to the default
  colors. This is problem.
  Result :
  The color reset is not performed at the isolated
  external reference element. This is problem.
  .
  Result to expect :
  The color reset should be performed at the isolated
  external reference element.
  .
  Remark :
  The original feature face is the blue color. So, this
  model was created by the behavior of the color
  transfer from R17. "Automatic" command should be
  performed without the step of "Isolate" if the color
  reset does not relate to the link.
