If this key is set, the material should be applied with all physical properties.
The material name must be identical to one of the names in the material list (iProperties -> Physical tab -> Material)
Per default the value of this key is a complex vbs expression. It may be adjusted as desired.
Material=?context.TranslateStringInGlobalOptionArray(MATMAP,,_FORMAT_0(<CLASSPROP(cns,CNSPHYPROP,CNSMAT)>).value())
Material=?_FORMAT_0("<ATTR(MATERIAL)>").value()
May be combined with material mapping (internal PARTsolutions material name : CAD-System material name).
Material mapping is used in order to map the internal PARTsolutions material name onto the CAD system material name.

The untranslated name of the material is transferred; in other words the same one for all languages. |
Per default the material name is taken from the CNS classification. (Where the CNS classification gets the material name from is set under
C:\ProgramData\cadenas\partsolutions\setup -> configuration file partsol.cfg -> Block VARTOCLASSMAPPING. Per default the table column "MAT_NAME" is set.)
The determined name is then mapped along with the material table under block MatMap to the CAD system material names.
The following shows the [MatMap] block relevant for material mapping:
[MatMap] Copper=Kupfer Aluminum-6061-AHC=Aluminum-6061-AHC Titanium=Titan ABS Plastic=ABS PlastiK Gold=Gold Lead=Blei Silver=Silber
