    Default What Material Has that been painted with

    Hi There

    My question to all you Revit people out there is quite simple but I do not know the answer, can you please help.

    I am working on a small model which was created by someone else. They have used the paint tool to paint the entire outside of the building.

    I have added a small extension to the model and wish to paint the walls the same colour.

    How do I find out what material a face has been painted with.

    Many Thanks

    David

    Hey there,
    One way you might be able to do this is to use the "paint bucket" tool and click on a painted wall. That should give you a pop-up tool tip and also list the material in the toolbar window.

    Let us know.

    Hey Dave,

    You never have to feel stupid here! (If that were the case, I would be at the head of the line, holding the door!)
