Assigning Material in VIZ5

[Patrik Ruzic]

Hi all,

I started use VIZ 5 and have a litlle problem. I have a model of house in ADT 2004. I linked this house to VIZ 5 via File Link. Then I select one wall and assign from material editor material to this wall. But material was assigned on all walls. I try linked house from ADT 2004 with every method in File Link but every when I assigned material only in one wall material was assigned on all walls. This problem I have with glass in windows too. Where is problem ???

Thanks for advice....

Try putting the wall in it's own layer in Autocad that should do the trick.

Isn't there a material override command in Viz to apply only to single objects and not all objects on the same layer? I don't know cause I dont have Viz 5 yet but I think I read something about that.

Materials Editor > Options > Propagate Materials to Instances

Disable that and you will be able to apply materials individually.
