How about having Material styles to can work with Wall styles. By having Material Styles that work with wall styles. It would give a more realistic look to the walls. Lets say you cut a section through a wall with brick. When you look at the section. The Material Style(s) that were applied to the wall will show all the shapes. Such as the shape of brick, stone, siding, sheathing and etc...

Also by having Material Styles. It can help show how the correct relationship between the material and the grade.

Thank you,

Brad,

You are referring to more of a detail subset of the material style, correct? Sort of like combining the DCM with the Material Styles.

I would like to revisit the thread.

By having these styles at your disposel would allow you to create more realistic elevation.


Example 1: Brick - By having a brick wall style that it automatically creates the shape of the brick would be better than using photo images for materials.

Example 2: Siding - By having a siding wall style that it automatically creates the shapes of the siding styles would be better than using photo images for materials.

Example 3: Stone - By having a stone wall style that it automatically creates the shapes of the stone styles would be better than using photo images for materials.

Example 4: Stucco - By having a stucco wall style that it automatically creates the shapes of the stucco styles would be better than using photo images for materials.

Example 5: Vertical Metal Panel - By having a vertical metal panel wall style that it automatically creates the shapes of the vertical metal panel styles would be better than using photo images for materials.

Example 6: Shingles - By having a brick wall style that it automatically creates the shape of the Shingles would be better than using photo images for materials.

Roof Styles:

Example 1: Vertical Metal Panel - By having a vertical metal panel roof style that it automatically creates the shapes of the vertical metal panel styles would be better than using photo images for materials.

Example 2: Clay - By having a clay roof style that it automatically creates the shapes of the clay styles would be better than using photo images for materials.

And etc:



Thank you,
