Description

Assigning Materials to pixels is the climactic step in building a Microstructure. The pixels argument is either the name of a pixel group in the Microstructure, or one of the special placeholder objects all or selected. Choosing selected assigns the Material to the pixels currently selected in the Microstructure.

Assigning a Material to a pixel that already has a Material simply overwrites the previous assignment. There is no need to remove the old Material first.
