It would make sense to me to have a single place to change the color of all siding, all fascia, all window trim, all corner trim, ... It I set it up right. However, I am confused about the best way to do that with a profile. I have several hundreds of one profile in the model and twenty or so of another profile in the model. And it seems that a profile's surface color can be controlled in several places and I can't seem to find them all. Where is the best place to globally change them all in a single location without having to select all of them.<BR /> <BR /> For example: I have a house with board and batten siding with corner trim and frieze trim under the eave. I want all to be the same color and the ability to change the color of all in one place. The battens and corners are profiles while the siding is a wall. Then there is the window trim, which I forgot to mention.<BR /> <BR /> Changing all the walls is easy as I select the building material and select a new color.<BR /> <BR /> Any thoughts?</T></DIV> Wed, 24 May 2023 06:11:58 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/I-am-confused-on-how-to-change-the-surface-color-of-a-profile/m-p/238598#M127206 4hotshoes 2023-05-24T06:11:58Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/I-am-confused-on-how-to-change-the-surface-color-of-a-profile/m-p/238599#M127207 If your profiles only use a single colour, you could set up a <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Graphic Override<E></E> to change that single colour to a second desired one depending on your option.<BR /> <BR /> <BR /> <BR /> Ling, Tue, 09 Jul 2019 01:13:24 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/I-am-confused-on-how-to-change-the-surface-color-of-a-profile/m-p/238599#M127207 Lingwisyer 2019-07-09T01:13:24Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/I-am-confused-on-how-to-change-the-surface-color-of-a-profile/m-p/238600#M127208 Have you tried the surface painter tool in 3D?<BR /> <BR /> Barry.
