Materials and Display Properties
You can use materials to control the display of both default and custom infills,
frames, and mullions. When you assign materials to the element definitions
you create, you do not need to define these definitions as custom display
components. For more information, see Specifying the Materials of a Door
and Window Assembly Style on page 1751.
