Add Finishes Items
To add Finishes Items to a Room or Room Template, select the "+" button next to the Category to which you would like to add the Items. This will open the Items overview where you can select the Finishes Item to apply to the room. If the dRofus superuser has added an Item Group filter for the Category (as explained in chapter 14.2) the list will be automatically filtered to the correct Items Group;
The filter will ease the process of finding the correct finishes to add. If you would like a full overview of all available items in the overview – use the Select (F3) tab or search for items using the Search tab.
You add finishes by moving them from the left list to the right. Either by double-clicking on the items on the left of using the arrow icons in the middle of the window. Click 'Ok' when done editing.
Create view filters to control which parameters are visible for finishes
The project can use Items type filters to control what parameters that are available when you open a Finishes Item. To learn how the Project Administrator can set up view filters to different kind of items see Items Type Filter.
