<p>The Multi-Material tool defines a list of <a href="Material.html" title="Material">materials</a> with, for each material, a name and a thickness value. This multi-materials list can then be added to an <a href="Arch_Module.html" title="Arch Module">Arch</a> object instead of a single <a href="Material.html" title="Arch SetMaterial">Arch Material</a> .

|
|
</p><p>Not all Arch objects can currently make use of multi-materials, and the use they do of it differs. Currently:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul><li> <a href="Arch_Wall.html" title="Arch Wall">Walls</a> with a MultiMaterial will use the material definitions and thicknesses to create a multi-layer wall</li>
|
|
<li> <a href="Arch_Window.html" title="Arch Window">Windows</a> with a MultiMaterial will attribute materials with a given name defined inside the MultiMaterial to window components with a same name or type (see below). Material thickness is not considered.</li>
|
|
<li> <a href="Arch_Panel.html" title="Arch Panel">Panels</a> with a MultiMaterial will use the material definitions and thicknesses to create a multi-layer panel</li></ul>
|
|
<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="How_to_use">How to use</span></h2>
|
|
<ol><li> Create first a series of <a href="Material.html" title="Arch SetMaterial">Arch Materials</a> that you will need in your Multi-Material</li>
|
|
<li> Optionally, select an Arch object you wish to attribute the new Multi-Material to</li>
|
|
<li> Press the <span style="background: #DDDDDD; border: 1px solid #888888; padding: 0px 5px 1px 5px;"><a href="https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/index.php?title=File:Arch_MultiMaterial.png" class="image"><img alt="Arch MultiMaterial.png" src="16px-Arch_MultiMaterial.png" width="16" height="16" srcset="/wiki/images/thumb/c/c3/Arch_MultiMaterial.png/24px-Arch_MultiMaterial.png 1.5x, 32px-Arch_MultiMaterial.png 2x" /></a> <a class="mw-selflink selflink">Multi-Material</a></span> button</li>

|
|
</p><p>Upon creating or editing a multi-material by double-clicking it in the tree, the following options are available:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul><li> <b>Duplicate</b> another existing Multi-Material from the same document. This only copies the values over, and doesn't link the two multi-materials in any way.</li>
|
|
<li> The <b>Name</b> field will also set the material object's Label</li>
|
|
<li> The <b>Composition</b> list is the list of the different material layers that compose this multi-material. Each layer has a name, a material and a thickness value.</li>
|
|
<li> Click <b>Add</b> to add a new layer, <b>Up</b> to move a selected layer up, <b>Down</b> to move a selected layer down, or <b>Del</b> to delete a selected layer.</li>
|
|
<li> Double-click the <b>name</b> of a layer to edit it, the material will offer you a drop-down list of available <a href="Material.html" title="Arch SetMaterial">Arch Materials</a> in the same document, and thickness can be set to any value in any unit</li>
|
|
<li> Name and Material fields are mandatory. Thickness can be left blank (it will then adopt a value of 0).</li>
|
|
<li> When a multi-material contains layers with a thickness of zero, that thickness is considered variable. Arch objects that use the multi-material, such as Walls and Panels, will treat that accordingly, and give that layer the remaining space available given their own width or thickness.</li>
|
|
<li> If you name the different components of a multi-material "Frame", "Solid panel", "Glass panel" or "Louvre", and apply that material to a window, the given materials will be applied to the corresponding window components.</li></ul>
