Change Texture on Face in Specified Configuration Example (VB.NET)

This example shows how to change the texture on the selected face in the specified configuration.

'----------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Preconditions:
' 1. Ensure the specified textures exist.
' 2. Open a part or assembly with a Default configuration.
' 3. Select a face.
' 4. Open an Immediate window.
'
' Postconditions:
' 1. Applies texture to the selected face.
' 2. Inspect the Immediate window and the model.
