Methods

Name	Description
add	Adds an existing material to the Favorites list
classType	Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().
item	Returns the specified Material using an index into the collection.
itemById	Returns the Material by it's internal unique ID.
itemByName	Returns the specified Material using the name as seen in the user interface. This often isn't a reliable way of accessing a specific material because materials are not required to be unique.

Properties

count	The number of Materials in the collection.
isValid	Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
objectType	This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object. It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
