Material Component Assignments
Material definitions consist of display components which correspond to
component types of objects. For example, the Linework component of a
material is used for all linework of objects in Plan view. The Surface Hatch
component of a material is used to hatch all object surfaces in 3D model views
and elevations.
For a complete list of material components and their description, see Material
Components and Display Properties on page 884.
The following table lists all section components plus information about the
material components that determine them.
NOTE Keep in mind that materials are not assigned directly to 2D section objects,
but that the assignment of materials happens indirectly via the sectioned objects.
For example, if a brick material has a surface hatch component with a red brick
pattern, this surface hatch determines the display of the surface hatch in a brick
wall. When you create a 2D section from that wall, the resulting section object
will inherit the red brick pattern from the wall. When you change the material of
the wall from brick to concrete, and then update the 2D section, it will now display
with a grey concrete pattern.
