    Different Wall Types On One Job

    I seem to be having a little difficulty using different wall types on the same job, for example, front of brick, sides and rear of siding. And also on two story jobs where the first floor is of stone and the second floor of siding. Can anyone advice me on this? What is the correct procedure for putting in different type walls on the same job.

    Thanks,

    You can change the material for each individual wall by opening the Wall Specification dialog, going to the Materials tab, and choosing what materials you want on the exterior and interior surfaces of the wall.

    There are also several different wall types available so if you don't just want the right 3D appearance but want the actual different walls, you should be able to just choose like a Siding-6 or a Brick-6 wall. If you've already drawn the walls, at least in Deluxe you can use the drop down menu on the General tab of the Wall Specification dialog to change what the wall type is.

    If you have to edit existing wall types, I'll leave that to someone with Pro to explain.
