   * ++ Will a custom material added in one file be available for use in other files?| \\ Yes, a custom Scan&Solve™ Pro material added in one Rhino file will be accessible in other Rhino files. ++
-  * ++ Are orthotropic materials, such as wood or composites, supported in Scan&Solve™ Pro?| \\ Scan&Solve Pro presently works with orthotropic materials, such as wood. A recent update allows for the analysis of wood with changing grain directions i.e. curved wood. ++
+  * ++ Are orthotropic materials, such as wood or composites, supported in Scan&Solve™ Pro?| \\ Yes, Scan&Solve Pro supports both wood and other orthotropic materials, such as composites. All orthotropic materials require specification of principal material directions. For more information, see [[wiki:sns:snspro:using_wood_materials|Using Wood Materials]] or [[wiki:sns:snspro:using_orthotropic_materials|Using Orthotropic Materials]]. ++
-  * ++ Can Scan&Solve Pro simulate composite structures?| \\ Scan&Solve Pro can simulate basic composite structures by having multiple Rhino solids added as separate components in Scan&Solve Pro. The separate components can have their own material assigned. For more detailed instructions, see Adding Components. ++
+  * ++ Can Scan&Solve Pro simulate composite sandwich structures?| \\ Yes, Scan&Solve Pro can simulate composite sandwich structures by having multiple Rhino solids added as separate components in Scan&Solve Pro. The two thin plates can be added using orthotropic materials and the core can be added using isotropic or orthotropic materials. Read [[wiki:sns:snspro:using_orthotropic_materials|Using Orthotropic Materials]] or watch [[https://youtu.be/TK1vjyqMhL4|this video]]. ++

The geometry can be exported in its original form, or in its deformed state. You can also export a textured geometry which shows the results of the analysis to a VRML 2.0 file, or a Rhino mesh file. See the documentation on Baking for more information. ++
