Remarks

The material of the MassZone faced will be determined in the following ways based on the material type. MassZoneMaterialTypeMaterialBySurfaceType: Each MassZone face will use the material defined by the object style of the subcategory of the Element returned by getMassDataElementIdForZoneFaceReference(..). MassZoneMaterialTypeNormalMaterial: If the materialId is InvalidElementId, then the material defined by the object style of the MassZone subcategory will be used for all faces of the MassZone. MassZoneMaterialTypeNormalMaterial: If the materialId is the id of a Material element, that material id will be used for all faces of the MassZone.
