If I've understood the Name of a material asses is the fixed international name of that material, and the DisplayName of the asset changes with the language used.
For example in my program I can see that an Inventor part has a Name of "Metal-022" and a DisplayName of "Copper - Satin".
Is there a table or method of getting all the Names and their corresponding DisplatNames in the various languages?
