Plare

Paint

Apply materials to the elements of the drawing.

⚠ This tool doesn't draw yet. It exists in the bar, it has a key and it has a card — but the behaviour described below is the designed one, and it arrives in a future version.

Step by step

  1. Choose Paint and select the material in the palette.
  2. Click an element to apply the material.
  3. Ctrl+click applies to several elements in sequence.

Worth knowing

  • The material defines the appearance in the 3D model and can affect thermal properties.
  • Structural materials (concrete, steel, timber) have associated mechanical properties.
  • The palette can be extended with custom materials.
