Tool Properties (Materials)

Controls the properties of the selected material tool.

TOOLPALETTES (Command) Find: Right-click over a material tool > Properties

The properties displayed in this dialog box are the same as those in the Materials Editor. A few properties, such as swatch geometry, are not available in the Material Tool Property Editor.

When you edit a material tool, only the tool itself is affected. If the material is being used in the drawing and you want to apply the changes, use the material tool to reapply the changed material to the objects.

To make the changed material available in the drawing, apply it to objects in the drawing or copy it to the Materials tool palette.
