PCB Allegro Free viewer

SY2021
SY2021 over 3 years ago

Recently, I downloaded the Free viewer, but it is so difficult to use. A lot of menu tabs are removed from the top tabs, and the quick shortcut icons are also removed. The version is "17.4-2019 S019 [7/14/2021] Windows SPB 64-bit Edition". I am looking to the 'assign color' tool, where I can pick a component/net, then it will highlight the color I want. 

Could anyone show how to find the 'assign color'? or have a copy of previous 17.4 version 2019 -S001 was good.  I don't know why they have to make this so hard and not user friednly. 

thanks,
