This list is pretty comprehensive with lots of materials but if required you can also make your own custom material in AutoCAD. This will help you in sorting through the list of materials and in finding the right one easily. Now expand the panel on the left which says Home and you will get a categorized list of materials.Ĭlicking on a particular category from this panel will show only materials of that category in the Materials Browser palette.įor example, selecting Wood will show only wood materials in the palette as shown in the following image. The Materials Browser palette will open with a list of materials available for you which can be used in the drawing. Now go to the visualize tab and then click on the Materials Browser icon on the Materials panel.
Switch to the 3D modeling workspace, you can do that by clicking the gear icon on the bottom right of the status bar and then selecting the 3D modeling option from the list. In this example, I will use this Oldham’s coupling 3D drawing and add materials to it.
Though you can apply materials to the entire object using default options there are some workarounds that you can use to apply materials to selected faces of 3D objects as well.Īnd in this article, we will explore all these methods of applying materials to objects and selected faces too. You can also create your own custom materials in AutoCAD to give it a completely personalized appearance.Īnd if you like you can even make a complete photorealistic house with interior and exterior renderings as shown in this course.
In AutoCAD, we have a comprehensive library of materials and you can add material to any 3D solid object with a simple drag and drop.
