OrangerieGardens Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hi, How do I cut a wall to allow 2 different materials to be on there. It's weird. I'm using the break line tool and nothing is happening. I am a student. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_Gia Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Sometimes the wall will rejoin. Copy the wall definition and give it another name so that the program won’t re-join it. That is, use the break wall tool to divide your wall up in plan view. Then click on one part of the wall and go to the wall definition. Copy it and give it a different name. Then it will stay disconnected and you can change the material to what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangerieGardens Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 Sorry, I stll can't figure out how to break it in plan mode. I tried via an elevation and I still can't cut the wall. I'll keep trying. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtldesigns Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 try material region... Be in camera view looking at the wall you want to change.. Build>wall>material region. Draw a box.. thats your new material. Change it to what you want, then shape it with the grips. Read up on in, and there's vids.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
