The composite attribute allows you to specify the composition of a material or other item. You can enter a content percentage equal to 100 percent, and the system displays the total percentage chosen for that material or item in the Chosen field. When the sum of the percentages equals 100, you can no longer add content percentages unless you remove an existing content percentage. You can only select each type of content once.

The composite attribute appears as a comma separated list of percentage content when viewing the attribute.

The content percentages appear in the order they are entered.

When you are updating the attribute, the composite attribute appears as a combination of fields. Select an item from the Content list, manually enter a percentage in the Percentage field, and click Add. The content appears in the Chosen field, along with the corresponding percentage. The system displays the total percentage chosen for all selected content.
