basilbabaa Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Apparently I do not understand how to set default material settings. In this video, I'm experiencing some difficulties while working in X15. I'm trying to change the default exterior wall materials, but whenever I select the walls and choose the default material, it keeps reverting back to a blue siding instead of the one I have set. I'll show you the steps I've taken and the issue I'm facing. If you have any suggestions or solutions, please let me know in the comments. https://www.loom.com/share/16e4302e0e224bbf965a2947ff233d58?sid=131c2a53-7151-4065-a654-75f5f459f72b Thanks.

Kbird1 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 The Blue is Chief's default material for the default Ext. WALL TYPE , something is messed up, haven't been using the Paint Can Tool have you? Open the WallType in the Defaults > Exterior Wall > Wall Type Tab and check what's there... this is the Best way to change an entire Plan's Wall's , however it will only change walls that are still considered "Default Walls" , so if you have pull the top or bottom or spraycan a new color etc you need to fixed those manually, this thread may help with that........... https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/31850-paint-can-tool-material-painter-best-practices/?tab=comments#comment-250698 M.
