To Display Materials in a Drawing

Use this procedure to turn on material definitions in a display representation if they are assigned to objects but are not displayed in the drawing.

    Note: Make sure that you select only one display representation for material definitions in each display set. You should also verify that the component’s object layer is turned on.

  8. Click OK.

    The material assignments you made now display in the drawing.
