Delete material

“Delete” material implies that it is removed from the material database.

Only materials from the user material database can be deleted.

Note: While deleting a material used in the design of an existing motor, the name of this material and all the corresponding physical properties are kept in the data of the motor. These are kept if the material is not changed in the motor. If the material is replaced by another one, the former material (removed from the material database) won’t be usable anymore.
