mikeSK Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Home Designer Pro 2022 Build 23.4.1.8 x64. I am restructuring my house and I would like to show the plumbing system. So I can use cylinders for the pipes but I would like to differentiate between hot and cold. It would be great if you could colour the cylinders but I can't find a way of doing that. Has anyone else tried to do it and if you were successful perhaps you could share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y-g-m-n Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 draw in your "Pipes" Then click on it and open object for detail Then go to material tab. Then click on "pipe" and change material to a color of your choosing. Look for catalog under main core catalog library - MATERIALS - COLORS easy peasy.

mikeSK Posted June 3, 2023 Author Share Posted June 3, 2023 Thanks y-g-m-n. but actually no.I have tried that and it colors the outside of the pipe - i.e .the material of the pipe , but on the plan view you don't see that. You need to kind of fill between the walls of the pipe and color that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 You might have to draw the pipes as poly lines in plan view. Then change the infill to solid and the color you want it to be. Though unless you're printing the plans in color, the colors won't matter, so maybe an infill of 2 different patterns may work better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
