Import Building Styles

If you created a complex building style you may want to use it in different projects. In order to do this you have to import the style in different files somehow. This is possible to do with Blender append functionality.

  • Use Topbar -> File -> Append

  • In the appeared window browse to the file from which you want to import a building style.

  • Open the file

  • Inside the file you will find Node tree folder. If there is no such folder then the file does not have any Building styles.

  • Open Node tree folder

  • Inside the folder find the name of the style (or names) you want to import and press append button.

Importing of a style is going with all dependent panels. After the import you can use it inside the file. Read more how to use styles in Quick Start, only instead of creating new style select the imported style.

Note

In future Blender may support adding custom node groups to the asset manager in this case sharing of building styles will be even simpler.
