Another newbie question: Floors

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 16:02:27 GMT

Hi there!

I wanted to know whether it is possible to fill a slab with different kinds of materials. At the moment I have one large slab and it should contain e.g. ceramic tiles in bathroom, parquette in living room etc.

Is separate slabs next to each other only way to do this? Or is there a way to fill some parts of the slab with different material (filling different zones on the slab seems to work in 2D but not in 3D)?

(BTW. I'm using AC9)

Regards,

Timo

Not that I know of. What you may want to do is use the slab as regular floor and add thin slabs of materials on top of it in each particular room (i.e.: a 1/2" slab in the bathroom with a grid on top and a tile finish, and a 1" slab in the hallway with a wood pattern on top and a wood finish, and so on).

Yes if you are using only slabs

Explore the Interior wizard. You have to have Zones defined properly.
