Since adding a new flat screen monitor to my set up my poser mat room has developed a quirk.

The right hand arrow, which should show the options for copy and paste mat to various material zones now shows the mat zones instead.

This is most frustrating as I make my mat poses with shader spider.

Does anyone have any idea what I have done to get this problem, and how I solve it, please?

I am fairly new to P6, hung on to my old P4 until it was just no longer viable.

Please post a screenshot of your Material Room as it is now.  It will be extremely helpful.

Well, not one I've run into before, but off the top of my head I'd say your best bet would be to go under the Edit menu and select general preferences (I think ctrl K is the hotkey for it).

Under the interface tab, select "launch to factory state", then close Poser and restart it.  If this is some sort of setting in poser causing the problem that should do the trick, and if not at least it will tell you that it's not a Poser setting that was changed that is causing the problem.

Just grab the bottom right of your material pane and widen it a little bit. 
It looks like  the pane is at it's horizontal minimum.
Hope this helps.

One other suggestion - and something I strongly recommend - is to switch to Advanced view in the Material room.  You'll soon find Simple mode is useless for most things.

Simple mode is quite good enough for me I am afraid Sam

II make my textures so that they can be used in other apps, such as studio, carrara and bryce with not too many problems, but I probably shouldn't mention that in the poser forum  :blushing:

I also don't post my freebies in freestuff here, cos I don't think the friend who hosts my site could cope with the traffic if I did.
