Introduction
Hi everyone. This is Ekram from India, working in Riyadh as Assistant Architect. I came to know about this amazing site via YouTube. I was introduced to Revit in 2009 but lost touch. Trying to upgrade myself about Revit and its use in BIM in the current scenario. It feels great to be in a group of like minded people. Thank you all.

Hello, I stumbled upon this looking into Revit for a school project. Currently working as a Civil Engineering Technician using Civil 3d daily, majoring in Construction Management with free access to Revit until Graduation. Because of this I may pop in here to learn the program when I get the chance from time to time. Thank you.

Very nice, Brenden! Welcome and please share any questions you have. I always enjoy fellow civil engineers getting into Revit and Civil 3D because 3D>2D!

Newbie in revit
Hello to all. I'm from the Philippines and working as a Cad technician unfortunately not on architectural field, but rather on structural. I know Revit but basic knowledge only and I want to learn more. Thanks again and More power to Architecture Vanguard.

Is it possible to apply different materials to different faces of the same object in TM?
Take the wall in the family of this nested kitchen from this video for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EoiutAnzKU Could you apply a different material to the front, back, and sides of the wall behind the cabinets or if you've failed to first apply different materials to those faces in REVIT before the import is it impossible to do in TM?

Hey Pedro, thanks for the question! In the end this would come down how the cabinet in this case is modeled. The short answer to what you are asking is no, but there are workarounds. The best of these is to manipulate the model according to the materials you want to apply. For example, if you want the side of a cabinet to be a different material than the front, the side of the cabinet would have to be a "separate" model. By this I mean as a Revit family, the side panel would be a separate shared family nested into the overall cabinet model (if done correctly, the model in TM would show as a separate element for the side panel, therefore, the side being its own element). Another and simpler option would be to paint the side of the cabinet in the family and apply a separate material to the side in Revit. Of course make sure your import setting in TM are set to "keep hierarchy". Either of these would work and allow you to select the element (if the side is its own element) or apply the material to the object (that being the painted side face) based on your material application setting (see image). Hopefully this makes sense and helps!
