Are properties no longer available for personal users?

[lemelman]

The charity for which I do voluntary work can nolonger afford a full licence, so I have to use the personal (free) version. I tried asigning a physical material to a part I've designed but cannot change it from the dafault of  'steel'.

Have I missed something or am I doing something wrong? It always used to work.

Hi @lemelman 

Could you export your file to the forum so we can see if we can replicate the issue,

File -> export -> F3D -> Upload here

I see no issues changing material using the Fusion Personal License. The only thing I can think of is to make sure that you have some different materials to change to.  Animated GIF will show me changing material.

Are you trying to assign a physical material to an external component in the Assembly environment?  Physical material is a design property (as opposed to Appearance, which can be overridden in another design).  If so, you will have to open the referenced component and change physical material there

Here's my file, and a video.

I discovered that I was doing it completely wrong, and have now fixed it. Thank you for confirming that it actually does work and that encouraged me to investigate further.

I tried posting earlier to include my f3d and a short video, but simply got a message saying the video is being processed and to try again later. Many minutes later its still not finished processing.
