Mikedk64 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hi, Is it possible to give a wall different colors/textures on the same component? I have a 10 meter long wall, that i like to give 3 different colors. the first 2 meter in red, 2 m eter in green and 6 m in blue. Is this possible on the same wall? Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 No, use three walls in row. Quote Link to comment
Mikedk64 Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 That was also my first thought. It do also work, but then when i create a slab of these walls, it is kind of not link to the three walls. When i move the blue or red wall, the slab follow, but when i move the green or all three, the slab converts to "manual" and break the link. (See my file) Test_wall.vwx Quote Link to comment
AlanW Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 @Mikedk64Hi If i move any wall in top plan view or iso all walls take the slab with them. If in 3D i move the green wall from the middle of wall it detaches from slab, move from end of green wall slab follows. Quote Link to comment
Mikedk64 Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 That's seems to kind of work. Thanks Quote Link to comment
MRD Mark Ridgewell Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I find the following works well; 1 Draw 3d model 2 Create interior elevation viewports 3 Add colours in viewports by tracing 2d polygons and applying the colours you want 4 Group the polygons 5 Copy said polygons into model, rotate and place on 3d walls Been using 3d skirting plug-in too, which is great to get skirtings drawn on before you do the above.

zoomer Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Being able to set different Materials for a single Component, like you can do for an standard overall Wall, not controlled by Component, would be great ! (I said this a few times already) Quote Link to comment
