Use thickened sketch in relations or pro-program

Is there a way to use Material Side: (side one, side two, both sides) to drive a parameter through pro-program or relations?

I am not aware of any system parameter for this material side in a sketch being available. If there is not a parameter to be used in a conditional relation, then the answer is no. You could investigate the Toolkit API library to see if there is a function call for this material side, if there is then you may be able to use the API to manipulate this with a custom app.

Hi,

you have to create 3 feature variants (side one, side two, both sides) and turn appropriate variant on using parameter value.
