Can I change individual materials in my design?
Yes! To change them:
1. Highlight the required unit/s and right click.
2. Select 'Edit Materials' - Here you can edit the materials as you usually would by selecting the components and selecting the texture.
To individually change attachment materials such as cornice, pelmets, plinths etc.
1. Highlight the units that require the attachment with a different material and right click.
2. From the menu select 'Customisable Panels'.
3. Choose the required attachment from the list - this will create a new attachment.
4. Right click the new attachment and click 'Edit Materials' - Here you can change the material as you usually would.
Should you customise unit materials individually, you will then not be able to change the colours globally.
