Right, left, or even back sides facade ?

Hi all,,

while i'm trying to learning CE by using the tutorials i passed by the facade modeling, facade wizard & Advanced shape grammar and i have the following Question:

*they are all talking about the front, Top.. Ground floor and upper floor... etc.

but what if i want to model the right side or the left keeping in mind the definition of the front facade?

by other words i want to apply left,right or even back side facade model than different than the front facade is it possible or i have to use different application and more manual procedures such as google sketchup the import the . obj to the CE and apply texture ?

comp (f) { front : frontfacade | side: sidefacade | back: backfacade}

thank you for your help

You can comp left and right too.

comp(f){left: LL | right: RR | front: FF}‍

If it's a more complex building, you can use the polygon indices, like comp(f){0: AA | 1: BB | etc... }

L R thank you for your help!

i'm facing difficulties in multi-facade import,

i did the comp(f) and everything is going well

comp (f) {0:AA |1:BB |2:CC | 3:DD |4:EE| 5:FF|6:GG |7:HH}

then i apply facade to CC

CC-->
comp(f) { 2 : gen_Facade_AdvancedFacade.Facade }

also add some colors to different sides

AA-->color ("#0000FF")

BB--> color("#FF0000")

the Question is how Can i import different facade.cga instead of color?
