RGWhite Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I made a wall type with #2 SPF for the framing. When I build the material list it shows fir framing and when I open the components of the wall it shows #2 SPF. Is this normal? I was thinking that the materials list would reflect the components also in wall types I changed the framing to #2 SPF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_martin Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 The materials list shows the "material" Create a material for SPF #2 and change the stud material to that from fir framing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGWhite Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Thanks Joey. Yes I made a material (#2 SPF) and saved it in my user library and changed the changes. Still it list the studs as fir. Also the siding has the #2 SPF?????????? The material was selected as framing and you would think it would be listed under F1 and not GN1. Any ideas?

rlackore Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 FWIW, I get the same kind of result. I use a custom material for all my framing, but the Materials List displays it all as "fir stud", "fir plate", etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGWhite Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Check this out: When I change the "Pattern" to custom it shows SPF, but if I choose "material type", framing in the pattern I get fir. What gives with this? I thought choosing framing was the correct thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
