Hi, I have problem 🙂

1. I load tileset `Tileset with discrete LODs` from [https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/3d-tiles-samples/tree/master/tilesets/TilesetWithDiscreteLOD](https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/3d-tiles-samples/tree/master/tilesets/TilesetWithDiscreteLOD)

and I want to change color of dragon.  
I declare styles  
var defaultStyle = new Cesium.Cesium3DTileStyle({  
&nbsp;&nbsp;color : "color('red')",  
&nbsp;&nbsp;show : true  
});  
and add styles to tileset  
tileset.style = defaultStyle;

and this didn't work :(.  
However when I load `New York` tileset, the same code works. Someone can me explain it?

Demo NY in cesium [https://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Build/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=3D%20Tiles%20Feature%20Picking.html&label=Showcases](https://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Build/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=3D%20Tiles%20Feature%20Picking.html&label=Showcases)

I load this url: ‘[https://beta.cesium.com/api/assets/1461?access\_token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJqdGkiOiJkYWJmM2MzNS02OWM5LTQ3OWItYjEyYS0xZmNlODM5ZDNkMTYiLCJpZCI6NDQsImFzc2V0cyI6WzE0NjFdLCJpYXQiOjE0OTkyNjQ3NDN9.vuR75SqPDKcggvUrG\_vpx0Av02jdiAxnnB1fNf-9f7s](https://beta.cesium.com/api/assets/1461?access_token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJqdGkiOiJkYWJmM2MzNS02OWM5LTQ3OWItYjEyYS0xZmNlODM5ZDNkMTYiLCJpZCI6NDQsImFzc2V0cyI6WzE0NjFdLCJpYXQiOjE0OTkyNjQ3NDN9.vuR75SqPDKcggvUrG_vpx0Av02jdiAxnnB1fNf-9f7s)’

The styling language only works if a tile has features to style, and that particular tileset doesn’t have any. Technically the tileset could be created so that each tile has one feature, but that just isn’t done at the moment.
