FEATURE REQUEST: All material fields visible in a read-only or preview screen
We would see value in being able to see ALL information about a material while inside of a Project. It does not need to be edit-able, just visible.
Currently, in Project Properties, if you are clicked on a material, you can see the following fields in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen:
Material Name
Material Code
Material Thickness
Material Comments
Material Grain
Material Database Name
It would be helpful to be able to see the additional fields in this same location:
Extended Data 1
Extended Data 2
Extended Data 3
Markup
Waste Factor
Labor Value
(and any additional fields that ever get added to "Edit Material")
It would be even better if a user could open a read-only view of the normal "Edit Material" screen and be able to see all fields, including the additional "Edit Sheet Size" data, like length, width, trims, & handling code.
It can be hard to track down errors and sometimes difficult to know if a material is actually the one you should be using, or has the sheet size you need included, when you can't see all the data about that material without going into the Library. We don't necessarily want to allow library access to all users, so they could definitely benefit from some other way to view this information.
