Material Descriptions

In this video, I will show you how to add material descriptions in 2023. By importing a part and selecting "single," you can now associate a material description along with the thickness. This feature allows you to quote or estimate on any type of material you would like, without the need for a dynamic lookup. I will demonstrate how to add different descriptions for materials such as B, S, F, and K. Pay close attention to the steps and try it out yourself!
