WB layered section with USERMAT

  Hey guys,
  
  I am trying to figure out how I can combine my USERMAT routine in WB (2022R1 Windows 10) with a layered section for a composite layup (or the use in ACP). Everything works with a single geometry and the material definition via APDL command in the Project tree. When I define a layered section the material that is selected in the layered section always overrides the USERMAT. Is there a trick to work around this problem? What I want to do is define a laminate with different layers where each layer has different material properties that are calculated by the usermat. (so Mat1 for layer1 and Mat2 for layer2 and so on)
  
  Thank you in advance!

  I just noticed that I somehow posted this in the wrong section. I cannot delete or move it but maybe one of the mods can move my post towards the Ansys mechanical section. Thanks!
