Selective White Mode

Is there a way to view my model in 'white' mode but only have one element of my model in colour?

    Hi,

    We've released Selective White Mode for Assets functionality and we will work on providing a similar functionality for materials.

    We need to ability to do this on the material level. For example, I want everything rendered as white, except these 3 materials (glass, grass, wood). This will help us with conceptual design. Materials are introduced gradually in the design process.

For urban design and concept phases in architecture its so necessary to get nice images that can tell the story. Buildings in that phases are usually not fully designed, but its nice to show green context to explain better the project .

This would be a great idea for some customization and would greatly enhance the utilization of this mode. Otherwise we never use white mode because like you said, it turns everything white.

It would be great if you could pick between an 'include' or 'exclude' mode., similar how Vray did (does?) this. Because if you only wanted to white out 5% of the model, it would be ridiculous to have to put 95% on the exclude list. Also, I'm not s...

This is important where you have surrounding context that you have modelled or if you are very early in the design phase and you want the focus to be on form and space, rather than material.

every now and then we need to isolate some objects from the white mode to make them stand out and this would save a lot of time from exporting 2 versions of a view rendering and post product in photoshop to combine these as required.

In conceptual design, we might just want to show all the existing in white, and new massing with color. This can be done in Revit by changing all to white but its very time consuming. So we want to see everything white except diagrammatic materials.
