==Description== <!--T:14-->

<!--T:19-->
The Material Editor allows you to edit and save the information contained in a [[Material|FreeCAD material]]. Currently such materials are used by the {{KEY|[[Image:Workbench_FEM.svg|24px]] [[FEM_Workbench|FEM]]}} and {{KEY|[[Image:Workbench_Arch.svg|24px]] [[Arch_Workbench|Arch]]}} workbenches.

==Usage== <!--T:3-->

<!--T:15-->
The material editor can currently be accessed by either:

<!--T:4-->
# [[Image:Workbench_Arch.svg|24px]] [[Arch_Workbench|Arch Workbench]]
#* The [[Image:Arch_SetMaterial.svg|16px]] [[Arch_SetMaterial|Set Material]] button of the [[Arch_SetMaterial|New material]] creation panel of the [[Arch_Workbench|Arch Workbench]]
#* The menu {{MenuCommand|Arch → Set material...}} entry
# [[Image:Workbench_FEM.svg|24px]] [[FEM_Workbench|FEM Workbench]]
#* The [[Image:Arch_Material_Group.svg|16px]] [[Material_editor|Material editor]] icon
#* The menu {{MenuCommand|Models → Material → Material editor}} entry
# Via python (see [[#Scripting|Scripting]] section below)

== Options == <!--T:5-->

<!--T:6-->
* '''Browser button''': Opens the contents of the URL property in a browser
* '''Material card''': Allows to choose a preset to fill in the fields
* {{Button|Open}}: Opens a .FCMat file
* {{Button|Save as}}: Saves the contents of the editor as a new .FCMat file
* '''Preview''': Not implemented yet
* '''Properties editor''': Allows to edit the contents of the material properties
* {{Button|Add property}}: Allows to add a new custom property
* {{Button|Delete property}}: Deletes a selected property. Only custom properties can be deleted

<!--T:7-->
Note:

<!--T:8-->
* The {{Button|OK}} and {{Button|Cancel}} buttons have the same effect when the Material editor is not used to edit directly the material property of an existing object.

==Scripting== <!--T:16-->
