Associate 3D/Disassociate 3D

The Txt_Oper->Associate 3D/Disassociate 3D commands in the Matter module allow you to either associate a texture to or disassociate a texture from the selected object using the Schematic window. You can associate a 3D texture to more than one object. Sharing materials is especially useful because it allows you to quickly and easily edit a material that is used throughout your scene. When you associate a texture to an object, it becomes the current one.

For more information about working in the Schematic window, see the Schematic Window section.

Procedure

1. Open a Schematic window and select its Matter mode.
2. Select an object or local material.
3. Choose the Txt_Oper->Associate 3D or Disassociate 3D command.
4. Pick the 3D texture you want to associate or disassociate.

The texture is linked to or unlinked from the selected object or local material.
