Modifying Plies

You can modify or create a direction or change a ply material in a Composites part.

  1. To change locally the material of a ply, right-click the ply in the tree, and select Properties.

    Multiselection is available.

    • If the plies have all the same material or the same direction, it is proposed in the dialog box.
    • If the plies have different materials or directions, the box is left blank but the list is populated.
    • The new material and direction are applied to the plies selected.

  2. From the Composites tab.
    1. Select another material from the list.

      Those materials have already been defined as Composites Parameters.

    2. If required, select another direction from the list.
    The new material is applied, and the tree is updated accordingly.
