      <p class="para_topic">This option assigns a material attribute to the part geometry as one of several parameters used to determine cutting feeds and speeds. Once this part material as well as tool material, cut method and cut depth have been specified, the Reset from Table button in the Feeds and Speeds dialog uses these parameters to recommend appropriate Surface Speed and Feed per Tooth values.</p>
      <p class="para_topic">The specified Part Material applies to all operations in the part unless another material is specified in the Mill Geometry or Workpiece dialog boxes. Material specified in the Geometry Group dialog boxes supercedes the Part material specified here.</p>
      <p class="para_topic">The Part Material button displays a listing of available part materials to choose from. The contents of this listing is determined by the Configuration File.</p>
      <p class="para_topic">Refer to Object&gt;Feedrates described in the Operation Navigator section for details on how the Feeds and Speeds dialog uses this and other parameters.</p>
