i have created a basic macro where custom properties are entered into a box and then written into the part/assy. i have a field for the part material, but would also like to be able to have the ability to read from a material already specified in the materials editor/materials database.
at the moment i leave the field blank for the material, so it then creates a Material custom property, then i link that to the specified material " snipped-for-privacy@xxxxx.sldprt".
I'm just wondering if anyone knows how i can get this information, possibly using a push-button? any help would be greatly appreciated.
