 ===== Single Material Analysis =====
   - In the simulation setup window, select the **Materials** tab
   - Scroll down to the **All Components** drop down menu
   - Choose one material for entire assembly. Selecting a material in the All Components menu will apply the same material to every component.
-     * Ferrous metals
-     * Non-ferrous metals
-     * Non metals
-     * 3D printed plastics
-     * Engineering Plastics
-     * Biological materials
   - Continue with simulation process described in [[wiki:id:simulation_setup|Simulation Setup]]

 ===== Multiple Material Analysis =====
-  - Choose [Set Multiple Materials] (red box)
+  - In the simulation setup window, select the **Materials** tab
-  - Hover over the part to see it highlighted in the assembly (orange box)
+  - Hover over the dropdown menu of each component to see it highlighted in the assembly
-  - Click the material dropdown menu (blue box)
+  - Click the material dropdown menu (highlighted in blue)
-  - Select appropriate material
+  - Select appropriate material for that component
-  - Repeat for the remaining parts in the assembly
+  - Repeat for all remaining parts in the assembly
-  - Click back (purple box)
   - Continue with simulation process described in [[wiki:id:simulation_setup|Simulation Setup]]
