This tutorial focuses on working with materials in the pCon.planner web. It demonstrates how an existing floor plan can be further developed from a design perspective – starting with neutral colors and surfaces for early concepts and progressing to real manufacturer materials from the pCon.catalog.
This video explains how walls, floors, and other surfaces can be assigned colors and materials, how material categories are used, and how laying patterns can be realistically represented using rotation angles. It also shows how manufacturer materials from the pCon.catalog can be integrated into the planning, identified at any stage, and reused across projects.
Another key aspect is the use of favorites and lists to organize materials efficiently and apply them consistently across platforms. This enables a seamless workflow from initial design concepts to manufacturer-specific detailing – entirely within the browser.
