Hi
I would suggest to add the commands snippet under the part (geometry tree) as is normally done to change the material and element type of this part, and not under solution – in that way it will only be changed for that one only.
See here:
/forum/forums/topic/inserting-an-apdl-command-to-multiple-objects-elements/
As shown in the link always use ET,typeids(1) or ET,MATID, MP,EX,MATID, TB,..,MATID etc. (So use matid and typeids(1) and not MP,EX,1, so numbers like 1,..)
All the best
Erik
