Hi Folks

In NX, after I assign a material using Tools > Utilities > Materials > Assign Material, is this material property displayed visually somewhere?

In Catia a little icon appears in the tree. This is useful so that when you first open a part you immediately know what it is made from.

Thanks

You can configure the assembly navigator so that it shows up there. By default it only shows up in the attribute dialog box.

Okay, bummer that we can't place it in the part navigator pane. But that'll work.

Thanks!
