Compensation Plate Material

Sets the available materials for a compensating plate.

The default values/settings indicated on the window are those that exist when the supports application is first installed.

Changes made are only applied to the database when Apply is clicked. To keep the changes the Save Work operation must be performed.

Click Cancel to close the window. If changes have been made, but not applied, a window displays asking if the changes are to be applied before exiting.

The Supports Compensation Materials window contains two lists, the first lists the different possible choices of materials and the second lists the available materials.

To set a material choice, select the appropriate choice from the list of available choices and then select the material for that choice from the list of available materials.

Duplicate choices are omitted from the material selection drop-down list in Model.

The default choice is the material that is initially set when a compensation is created. It is not possible to remove the default choice.

The available materials that can be assigned to a choice are populated from the MDS/PROP database and only solid materials are available for selection.
