Sorry to continue the off-topic sub-thread but since we're talking about applying materials while in the pose room, nobody mentioned ...

Drag and drop. Regardless of what is selected as current figure or actor, you can drag an mt5 or mc6 onto any figure or prop visually and it will apply to what was under the cursor when you dropped. (It will give feedback as you do this) When dropping an MT5 (individual material) it will apply to the polygon you dropped on (and thereby the material associated with that polygon).

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
