Hello!

I have a wall structure (that i see in a section) built upp with structural framing, and I have defined different strucural usage for example joist and horisontal brasing. Now I wuld like to change color ony on the joist.

How can I do that?

One way is to edit the joist family(s) and make each family (or type) have a different 'material'. Then apply a color to that material either in the family or in the project depending on how you would prefer to control it.

Completely do-able.

Thank you for you´re tip. but i would like to change color only in the view I´m standing.

I have tried to change it in visibility/grafics for my elevation but I can only change color on everything that is under the category structural framing, when i try to change color only on the joist nothing happens...
