jlsfagan Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I have reviewed this site and looked at other site tutorials posted on this forum. I am not new to AutoCAD, but I am new to rendering with AutoCAD. I normally do most of my renderings with Sketchup and Photoshop. I have found out how to apply materials to different sides of walls pulled from the tool palette. I found that you just need to copy wall style and assign which I did and was successful in changing the wall materials. I tried this with the chair block and sofa block and was unable to make it work. I did find something that tells you how to make a new layer and assign that layer a material. The layer options works, but only for one material per layer. But on the chair I would like to have different materials similar to the wall. My question is: How do you add rendering materials to a mutliview block such as a chair or sofa pulled from AutoCAD design palette? These blocks show in the I-Furn layer.

Cad64 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I have deleted your other thread. Please don't post the same question multiple times. Also, since we're talking about Multiview blocks, I have moved your question to the Architecture & ADT section: http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?56-Architecture-amp-ADT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlsfagan Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 my question was about mainly rendering. Please help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cad64 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I don't use Architecture, but I did read up on multiview blocks and found a lot of other people asking the same question about how to apply materials to them. Not sure if you've seen this thread, but maybe it will help: http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?32041-Materials-to-MVB-s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
