Hi everyone,

I seem to have a problem when it comes to selecting other materials. When i open up my Engineering data cell, im presented with a list of "Data sources" like General Materials, Explicit materials, hyperelastic etc. But when i highlight the cell "General Materials" nothing happens! Ive tried to use the browse function at the bottom of the table to add a new material library with the files from the metadata folder from my c drive, and its still the same. When i go back to my project page and highlight the "Engineering Data" cell, the properties tab on the right states that i have 1 material. Does anybody know where im going wrong? Thanks, Brian.

Along the top of the Workbench GUI, select "View", then "Reset Workspace". I suspect this will fix the problem.
