Edit visualisation material

All properties that have been applied to a visualisation material such as image texture, transparency, mirroring, shine, etc. can be set or modified in the Visualisation materials editor.
If a visualisation material that is stored in the database is changed, a query appears as to whether the change is saved to the visualisation material database or whether a new visualisation material should be generated. If you click , a new visualisation material with a name extension is generated and automatically added. This new visualisation material is only present in this drawing and if you right-click on it, it can be stored to the database (DB).
