Any way to drag drop a texture onto a wall?

Post by cj31387 »

As the title says. It would be a lot faster if I could drag drop the texture to the wall in 3d render view. If its not supported are there any plugins that do this? It's really hard sometimes knowing which wall is left or right, because it varies based on the way you drew the wall.

You can drag-drop the texture on the Modify wall - Texture - dialogue. As for which side is which, if you make a habit of drawing clockwise, left is the "outside" wall, but yes, I also confuse myself at times.

Keep in mind that you can modify the color of the walls sides of a room with the room modification dialog.

Yeah that works pretty good, Any quick way to do that for all outside walls?

If the outside walls are drawn the same direction (reverse walls that go the other way), you can multiple select and change them all at once. Pretty fast for me.

But a function that would be cool, is if it were possible to assign a general name to the wall colouring (e.g. "outside panel") - and then change all walls in one go by just changing the colour/texture assigned to the name. And similar with floors, ceilings, furniture elements).
