WoodGrain Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Hi, Anyone have any experience in switching quickly between different countertop materials? I am currently drilling down to change the default settings each time I want to view the design with a different countertop material, but it is a bit cumbersome. Wondering if there is a quicker way? Currently using >Default Settings >Cabinets >Base Cabinet > Base Cabinet Defaults > Materials > ....and editing the backsplash & Coutnertop defaults, manually.

PhillipCA Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 This video goes over how to change materials. The example used in the video is for cabinet boxes, but the same concept applies to countertops. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/1541/applying-materials-to-cabinets.html Here is information on using the style palette tool: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/247/using-style-palettes.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
