Situation

I have a prop parented to a figure.

I animate the prop's ambient value node in the material room.

I adjust the shader node parm dial in the parent body. 

Problem

Saving the material does not save the keyframes. Saving the object as a pose does not save the material.

Question

Is there a way to save that animated material so it can be recalled with keyframes intact?

So far the only way I have been able to save this to the Poser library is to save the whole prop in the Props library.

It would seem if I could save an animation to the Pose library and I can save a material as a pz2 then I should be able to jam the appropriate info into one file.

Anyone? Anyone?

Lamentations

Tuts, manuals, and forum searches have not hinted at what I thought would be obvious.

Thanks in advance for any help.
