HELP..

On my 3D model all the texture/materials/fill shows at the image,
but when I go to sections/elevations, then there is just one fill all over?

What do I do?

I have chosen the right fill to the right material on materials.

Do I have to do it by hand, or are there some autofunction?

I have try doing it by hand, but then the fill is all over, like window,doors++..

Hope someone out there can help me..

Check the Model Effects pane in the section settings. Also, check if you have same vectorial fill applied to your different materials, in Options>Element Attributes>Materials.

Thanks Thomas 🙂

I've checked this to things you are talking about, and they're ok.

What I did was to go under options>attribute manager, and then choose all and then OK.

After that it worked..but I'm not quite shore what i did..hmm

So, where do I go when I want to scale/resize the fill?

Because, on the materials the panel is one size, and on the section/elevation it show's a different size/scale?

You need to edit the fill definition (or assign a different fill to the material).
In AC10 this is under Options > Element Attributes > Fill Types....

Archi User 77 - Thanks 🙂

Well, I'm using version 9, and this is my second drawing with ArchiCAD.

And, because it takes so long time rendering, for this picture I've been turning down the rendering to simpler..so, I've done some better picture too 😉

My first drawing was a monastery for 5 munks..

I have no clue about ArchiCAD 10, but I'm looking forward to try it out.

Matthew - thanks for your help 🙂
