To apply materials to model geometry
- Select the geometry items directly in the Scene View or in the Selection Tree.
- Open the Presenter window, and click the Materials tab.
- Select your material from an archive or palette, right-click this material, and click Apply to Selected Items on the context menu to assign the material to the current geometry selection.
Note: Selected material will only be applied to the selected geometry item and not to every instance of the item. To assign the material to all instances of the selected geometry in the scene, click Apply to All Instances of Selection on the context menu.
Tip: You can drag and drop a material from an archive or palette onto items in the Selection Tree or Scene View to assign those materials to the items. The selection resolution determines which items will receive the materials.
