How can I change the material in 3D so that the cutted wall, slab,...don't look all the same like in my JPG?

Thank you for the quick response!

But isn't it possible to give different materials to different walls, slabs,...or can you just choose 1 material for al the cutted parts?

If you only can choose 1 material, you can't see the differents walls, slabs as you can see in my jpg...

Dave:

Look at Dwight's "cutting planez.jpg", change the Fill Material & Edge Pen of Cuts from Custom to Use Element Attributes, and the materials will be as assigned to each element.
