Set a default when setting new material group names.

How do I set new Material Group names?


Best Answer

Material Group names can be changed in Preferences -> Misc. By creating material groupings which include the most common materials you would use when building a particular style family of crates, you'll save a great deal of time each time you create a new design. Setting a distinctive name for each group makes it easier to remember the materials in the group.


When you change the name of the material group you should set the group that has the materials you'd use most often as your default. When you create a new design, this group will be pre-selected. To change the group you only need to click in the material group field and you'll see all your groups.


If you don't set a default you may find an original name will be in the field until you click in it.
