That's great!
Either I misunderstood your post or I didn't fully understand Puybaret's reply. I guess I need to read that link a little better.

Colouring parts of products and vertical angle Several products have more than 1 colour, f.e. a seat of a chair and steel legs, or a floorlamp of wood with a coloured shade. When I want to change the colour now, the total object gets the same colour, so also the legs or upright. Is it possible to adjust that, so I can only colour the parts I want? And can you make it possible to turn products upsidedown. Now I can make a horizontal angle, but I sometimes want a vertical angle. |

Re: Colouring parts of products and vertical angle If you want to change one color of a multicolored piece of furniture, change its materials (read help about furniture modification for more details). To change the orientation of a piece of furniture, you have to import it again and rotate it at the second step of the furniture import wizard. If it's a piece that is available in the default catalog, add it to the plan, then export it at OBJ format and reimport it. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: Colouring parts of products and vertical angle I may be wrong but I think what hobbyrv is talking about is some imported items don't allow coloring or texturing different parts of a model. They're just monochrome and that's it. I don't think there's anything you can do about that short of opening the model in a 3D modeling program and making changes to it. ---------------------------------------- Hawk |
