The MaterialList UserDefined object contains the properties defining the alternative “Style3” Material list. This type of list is created and plotted into a drawing frame that contains a pre-existing table (with header texts) into which the Material list is plotted.

A "Style3" Material list is only allowed with a Backing sheet. That is, if an ISOGEN generated drawing frame is in use, only "Styles 1 and 2" are available.

The MaterialList UserDefined object has several sub-objects and one collection:

• OneSection

• TwoSection

• ThreeSection

• RemarksBox

• SpoolTable

• XYColumns

These are used to hold the data defining the various different types of "Style3" list. These basically break down to how many sections there are plotted (certain options are not available in certain list types). Sensible defaults exist for each type of list, so each sub (section) object can be set up automatically and the user select between them.

The right hand panel shows the data entries as a spreadsheet, and the properties of each data entry can be modified as required.

Some properties have a drop-down selection menu which pops-up when the property is double-clicked. Other properties are typed entries - simply click in the field to place the cursor, then type the required value.
