Change material colour

Hi, apologies in advance, last time I was on here people were telling me I should know “basic” things and this question is basic, but ive been trying for hours and no luck, so reluctantly back on here.

all I want to do is change the colour of the decking/wood in my drawing, ive tried everything on google/chat gbt and non of them seem to work, not sure what im doing wrong. any help appreciated. Thanks

You should visit the SketchUp Campus website as well as the YouTube channel before using Chat gpt.

Thanks for the advice, I followed Mihai’s video and it worked straight away, chat gbt was so complicated and different and didn’t work. ill use these links in the future.
