🧱 Wall Editor #

Changing Wall Textures & Color #

The advanced customization suite features a Textures tab that allows you to customize surface textures independently for each side of the walls, add pattern repeats & wall decor items, and set non-uniform wall heights.

Select Your Surface Side

Walls have two distinct faces. Before applying colors or textures, choose which side you are editing in the left panel:

Side 1 (Inner): Modifies the interior face of the wall segment.

Side 2 (Outer): Modifies the exterior face of the wall segment.

Browse and Apply Textures or Colors

Use the left sidebar inside the materials editor to style your selected surface side:

Textures Tab: Browse through categorized material thumbnails like Wood, Marble, or Fabric. Click any swatch (e.g., finewood 27, woodplank_50) to apply it instantly to the wall preview.

Color Tab: Switch to this tab if you prefer a solid paint finish rather than a textured material.

Current Texture Indicator: Look at the top-center card to instantly verify what material is currently active on your canvas.

If a textured material is active, navigate to the right-hand Properties panel to prevent the pattern from looking stretched or unrealistic:

– Width: Adjust how wide the texture pattern stretches before repeating.

– Depth: Adjust the vertical density or depth scaling of the applied pattern.

Configure Wall Top Custom Heights (Optional)

For standard layouts, walls remain uniform. However, if you are designing sloped roofs, gables, or step-up partitions, use the Wall Top Custom Height inputs at the bottom right to assign non-uniform vertical heights:

– Left: Sets the absolute height at the starting endpoint of the wall segment.

– Center: Controls the height at the midway vertex.

– Right: Sets the absolute height at the terminating endpoint of the wall segment.

Save or Reset Your Work

Reset: Click the white button at the bottom right to discard your recent surface alterations and revert to the baseline wall properties.

Finish: Click the green button to lock in your custom textures and dimensions and return to the main 2D workspace canvas.

Adding Wall Decor #

The advanced Wall customization editor suit features a Wall Decor tab that allows you to mount decorative assets, doors, moldings, and art sets directly onto a wall face. This guide explains how to accurately position and scale vertical decorations on your selected surface side.

Place an Asset onto the Wall

Browse the item cards in the left panel to find accessories like the Gallery Wall Frame Set, Panel Wood Door, or Modern Slim Smart TV.

Click and drag your chosen item from the sidebar directly onto the central wall preview canvas.

Once dropped, a dashed boundary box will surround the asset, indicating it is active and selected for editing.

Configure Placement & Dimensions (Item Properties)

When an item is active on the wall face, the right-hand Item Properties panel updates to manage its precise physical placement vectors:

ModelID / ID: Identifies the system asset parameters and unique component layer tag.

Dimensions (Wi / De / He): Adjust text boxes to scale the object’s Width across the wall, Depth (how far it projects outwards from the wall face), and vertical Height.

Pos X / Pos Y: Use these precision sliders to slide the item left or right across the horizontal axis of the wall surface.

Alt (Altitude): Adjust this slider to change the height elevation off the floor lines (e.g., hanging a frame perfectly at eye-level or positioning a baseboard fixture right against the floor boundary).

Rot (Rotation): Rotates or tilts the asset orientation angles relative to the wall backing.

Save or Discard Changes

Reset: Click the white button at the bottom right to flush out any newly dragged decor additions or adjustments made during this edit session.

Finish: Click the green button to lock your artwork, doors, or panels seamlessly to the wall structure and return to your primary 2D layout workspace.

🏗️ Advanced Structure Asset Editor #

To customize a structural (load bearing or framework) element such as a column, pillar, beam, staircase, or false ceiling, click Structure Editor from the floating action bar.

Verify the Component Structural Layer

Look at the top-center Materials floating badge to view/select the active component layers detected on your structural block (e.g., 1 layer).

Click on a layer to activate it. The right-hand panel confirms the specific Layer Properties for the chosen layer. Use this box to change any dimensional detail.

Choose Your Finish Path (Textures vs. Colors)

Use the left-hand Appearance sidebar panel to define the architectural finishes:

Textures Tab: Browse through professional building material categories including Wood, Marble, Fabric, or industrial finishes like concrete and brick. Click any swatch to instantly wrap the texture around your column, beam, or step geometry.

Colors Tab: Open the Solid Color Picker palette to apply uniform solid coats. You can adjust the visual canvas spectrum, manipulate the rainbow hue slider, or enter exact R / G / B coordinates to implement precise brand paint specs.

Refine Advanced Surface Parameters

To mimic real-world building materials accurately under environmental lighting, fine-tune the parameter sliders in the right panel:

Texture Intensity: Adjusts the visual pop, depth, and roughness profile of the material grain.

Transparency: Sets the alpha-transparency level (typically locked at 100% for load-bearing structures).

Reflectivity: Dictates the surface light bounce (e.g., lower for raw concrete or matte brick, higher for polished stone pillars or metallic beams).

Surface Finish: Balances the outer texture layer between a textured flat matte and a clear glass-smooth gloss finish.

Save or Discard Changes

Reset: Flushes out recently selected paint hues or material swaps, reverting the structural asset back to its default library import values.

Save Changes: Click the green button to permanently apply your custom material maps to the structure and return cleanly to your main layout canvas.
