I am shading the new walls and I want the existing walls to remain unshaded. When I shade a new wall (4 1/2" new) the wall for existing (generic 6) also changes.
What can I do about this?

Thanks, Yakovk

how did you do the other types? is it duplicated from the generic 6?

Yes it is a duplicate of generic 6. How can I make a new wall type with shading without making a duplicate?

I found out what the problem is. The generic wall had a material of wood.When i changed it to "default" it is working as an unshaded wall.

Thanks for the help,

Are you using Phases for this?

If not, you should try it. You can control how the existing, demolished, and new construction appear automatically.
