Setting the material on a single component

You can set the material and style of single or multiple components, or a Group or multiple Groups of components, using the Assembly Tree context menus:

  1. In the Assembly Tree, select the components or Groups you want to modify.
  2. Right-click the selection to display the context menu, and select one of the following options:
    Note: The options available in the context menu depend on the items in your selection.
    • Use Style from Sub-items — Use the style attributes of the sub-items. Deselect this option to use the creation style of the component.
    • Use Own Style — Use the creation styles of the selection.
    • Use Material from Sub-items — Use the material attributes of the sub-items. Deselect this option to use the creation material of the component.
    • Use Own Material — Use the creation material of the selection.

    If you reset the material on a component, it uses the same material as the component definition. If you reset the material on a sub-assembly, its components use their own materials.
