I think this has got to do with the Cut_fill settings. You would have to set it for each of your layers. I can only think of being able to change this via the Building Material command.
Ling.
I was afraid so. In the end the solution i found without creating a building material for each colour was to draw the layers as mesh and then using solid intersection. After I could turn it into a mesh again and save it as an Object.
A bit of a work around though
Hi Arnaut,
If I understand you correctly, there is a solution for this that I used in the Composite Mesh Object.
It is what I call a "GDL Jedi Trick" like "
So, to fool a Called custom saved object to display new BM's or any other parameters, the trick is to: In the Call definition of the saved object, define all the parameters that you want to override with a "-1" value. The CALL commands says something like: if the compiler can't find the value in the local list of attributes it will adopt the very previous BM definition. So put a BM definition right before the CALL. Then it will stick to the Called object.
It will give only a "minor error occurred message" while saving it, but it wont affect the object functionality.
Hope this helps.

i can now, call -> Override -> Cut and repeat
A lot more elegant than I would have managed!
MODEL SOLID
if GLOB_CONTEXT = 2 then
add 0,0,GLOB_CUTPLANES_INFO[1] + GLOB_CSTORY_ELEV - GLOB_HSTORY_ELEV
CUTPLANE{2} 0,0
del 1
endif
i = von
h = von_H
Group "O"
CALL "Operator Höhenfarben" PARAMETERS materialAttribute_1 = 2, materialAttribute_2 = 3, materialAttribute_3 = i
Endgroup
if Sichtbar then
placegroup "O"
endif
repeat
i = i + 1
h = h + hohe
Gosub "Schicht":
until h >= bis_H
IF GLOB_CONTEXT=2 THEN
CUTEND
ENDIF
del top
!===========================================================
End
!===========================================================
"Schicht":
addz h-GLOB_ELEVATION!-Versatz
CUTPLANE 1,1,0,0
addz -hohe
CUTPLANE 1,1,0,1
!Circle 10
del 2
!material i
!addz -10
!Block 10,10,10
!del 1
CALL "Operator Höhenfarben" PARAMETERS materialAttribute_1 = i, materialAttribute_2 = i, materialAttribute_3 = i, materialAttribute_4 = i, materialAttribute_5 = i, buildingMatAttribute_1 = i
Cutend
Cutend
Return
