Quick3DPlan – Design Walls with Different Materials

Overview

In this video, we will learn how to assign different materials to a single wall, combining tiles, paint, or other finishes, and how to manage the height and measurements of each material.

1. Prepare the Work Area

  • View tab → turn off cabinets, appliances, and accessories
  • This allows better work on walls without visual interference

2. Access the Wall Materials Tool

  • Photo tab → Wall Material tool
  • Click the corresponding button → opens the pop-up window

Editing window includes:

  • Wall sketch
  • Left-hand list with: material name, height, angle, and measurements
  • Initially, the list is empty

3. Add a Material to the Wall

  • Click the “plus” icon → select desired finish
  • Example: hydraulic-type tile
  • Configure parameters:
    • Height: 150 cm
    • Material size: 15 × 15 cm
    • Angle: as needed
  • Click OK → the sketch updates

4. Edit Height, Angle, or Material

  • Double-click the material → modify height and angle
  • Edit button → change type of material or its dimensions
  • Add a new material: use the “plus” icon again
    • Example: white paint on the upper part
  • Click OK → now the wall has two materials

5. Check Total Height and Limits

  • Sum the heights of all materials → must not exceed room height
  • Example: if 155 + 100 = 255 cm and the room is 250 cm → adjust heights to match

6. Delete Materials

  • Select a material → click the “minus” icon
  • Material is removed automatically
  • To add it again → use the “plus” icon

7. Apply Changes to All Walls or Only One

  • Apply to all checkbox → active for global changes
  • Checkbox deactivated → changes apply only to the selected wall
  • Select wall → click OK → changes applied

8. Finalize the Design

  • Turn all elements back on (cabinets, appliances, accessories)
  • Obtain a global view of the kitchen design

Note:
This tool allows you to combine materials precisely, controlling the height, measurements, and angle of each finish, achieving customized and realistic walls within the project.
