| ConnectedTexture |
Gets the associated texture, if one exists. The HasConnectedTexture property controls if there is an associated texture or not. If the library is writable you can edit the texture. If not texture exists, this property will return Nothing. |
| DisplayName |
Gets the name of this value as seen in the Material or Appearance Browser. This can change based on the current Inventor language. |
| HasConnectedTexture |
Read-write property that indicates if the color has been overridden using a texture. Setting this property to False will remove the texture so that a basic color is used. Setting this property to True will connect a texture to this color which you can then edit to create the desired texture. |
