5.4 Managing Material Repositories
Planner provides a set of materials in the repository that you use to model the layout. You can perform several functions like
viewing properties of a default material, adding a new material, modifying, and deleting the user-defined materials. These are
stored in two types of repositories: Global Material Repository and Local Material Repository. Planner also allows you to
import or export material types from one repository to the other.
Note: All the user-defined materials are available in the indoor layout only.
While modeling the layout, you can also select the material type from the drop-down list on the Toolbar. The icon of the
material in use appears adjacent to this drop-down list, represented by the color and pattern assigned to the material.
5.4.1 Global Material Repository
Global Material Repository is a material object library of Planner which lists and provides material objects globally, across all
Planner projects. It is a globally available file saved as Objectproperties.xml.
To view the Global Material Repository, go to ToolsGlobal Material Repository.
