Can I change the shading or colour of a wall in plan view
Hi,

I would like to be able to have different wall shading or colour in plan view to show different types of wall construction ... is this possible?

Thanks

Ken

In plan view, you can just change the pattern of the walls with preferences dialog.
If you change the color of wall sides, you'll see the difference only in the 3D view.

Thanks but I don't want to change the shading of all walls, just some of them.

Re: Can I change the shading or colour of a wall in plan view
I´d like to have a diferent pattern in plan which must represent 25 cm of wall.

Because I´m using a different type o brick which cannot be cut and all walls must be the size of multiple of 25 or 12,5 cm ..

If I had this "pattern" I can also visualy calculte other thing in the plan, like the place to fill with concrete etc..

If you need I can send you the icon I have the file in vector format.

jorgesomers, it has been possible to set a different pattern on each wall since the version 4.0 released in 2013!
