Hi, im wondering if anyone can tell me how you can save Shader node sets so that you can just apply them to any material easier!?

I hope you can help.

Thanks

Click on the + at the bottom of the Materials Library palette.  You have a choice to save a single material or a collection (useful if you have a lot of materials on one figure).

In the Materials room: Select some material zone on some object Look at the Library palette Make a new Library Category the same as you would with the Library in the Pose room Click the + sign at the bottom of the palette, the same as you would in the Pose room

Decide whether you want to save a single material, or a materials collection; if you want a collection, you can pick all the materials you want via a checkboxed list. If you save a single material, you can apply that material to any other object, any material zone.  If you save a collection though, the names of the material zones must match on the target object.
