My deck keeps changing to white

[TammyP]

The deck automatically turns white when I change the siding colour or railing material to glass. I have torn my plan apart and redone this so many times!  What the heck am I doing wrong?

You are also losing your posts. Maybe post the plan and a video 9f what you are doing. Although I would try moving the deck railing wall in or out to see if anything changes. It might not be related to the railing

It's really hard to say "what you are doing wrong" unless you explain exactly what you are actually doing. 

 

Are you using the material spray can or are you using the "rainbow" tool?  For example, if you are using the material spray can, you may be accidently changing the material on your deck planks by clicking on the wrong thing.  If you are using the "rainbow" tool to adjust a material, the program will change that material for everything in the program that is using it.  In any case, you should be able to open up the deck room to see what materials are being used for the deck planks and change it through the dialog instead of rebuilding anything.

 

There are a lot of other things that could be happening as well.  Might be best for you to post the plan so that people can see if they are getting the same results.  If you want to post your plan, you may need to zip it up and even remove things to make the plan small enough to post.  Also, be sure and create the zip when the plan is not open in Chief otherwise it won't work right.

 

And it's also a good idea to let people know what version of the program you are using.
