- Capture All from Scene – Update all object’s materials from the scene.
- Capture Selected from Scene – Update only selected object from the list.
Control By Layer
New in 1.1. It allows you to assign materials per layer instead of per object. This is a hybrid way of working inbetween objParams/ManyObjParams.
- If you choose #Node, you can apply material to individual objects
- If you choose #Layer, you can apply a material to all object on the layer.
You can only choose one or another. You can not mix individual objects and layers.
When you switch between #Node and #Layer, the warming dialogs pops up to tell you that all the items in the current will be cleared.
