Part Material

We should have the ability to change the part material of any piece regardless of whether another piece is connected on both ends or not

All Part Materials on the sheet metal side are linked to specifications.
If you have a spec applied - only materials within that specification can be applied to pieces.
Program will not prevent you from drawing 3 galv pieces, and changing 1 of them to SS if you have your specs set accordingly.

Update - I didn't notice you were in Revit - it was early and I hadn't read where you posted my apologies!

I'm guessing you only want to be able to switch to a material that is valid for the spec?

From a behaviour perspective, what would you expect to happen if the spec calls for a different, incompatible connector, or a different std length?
