GROUP OPTIONS MATERIAL

GROUP_OPTIONS_MATERIAL  controls which materials that can be chosen as filling when drawing reinforcement groups. When the variable exists, the user can only choose between the material(s) that are set as the value for the variable. The value can be either one or several materials, and for the second alternative, the materials need to be separated with a semicolon (;). 

Be aware of that the values that are entered for the variable are case sensitive. That means that the value that is entered must be exact as the value that exists in IMPACT with the same combination/homogeneity of uppercase and lowercase letters. E.g. Light concrete LAC in figure 2 below must be entered as LAC and not lac or Lac. 

This variable will be added under Reinforcement/Default in Standard Admin. AutoCAD needs to be refreshed before the change will affect your drawings.

Example of the IMPACT default setting:

Figure 1: Dialog when the variable is disabled (no value or that the variable is erased). 

Example with a user default setting:

Figure 2: Dialog when the variable is set to LAC;Mineral Wool;Steel
