2. from the menu choose "MATERIAL LAYER ELEMENTS";
3.select the "HOMOGENEOUS elements" folder;
4. Right click "append"> "Folder"

5. type the name of the folder;
6. select the folder;
7. Right click "append"> "Item".


Within the editor, you can customize the individual material by choosing from the properties toolbox a pattern, an image and assigning some thermal properties.
