Dear Paul

It seems the material for proxy will not be saved ,each time after I saved a revit file and close, the materials will be gone, when reopened they becomes light grey colored raw material, I have to reassign all the materials for all the proxies.
is this the normal situation, or there is a way to keep the material?
I tried to save the materials as default but seems not working...
Kindly please let me know what to do, and I am using the version 3.08 octane for revit.

Many Thanks,

Jim

Proxy materials should be saved in the .rvt file and re-loaded when the scene is loaded. I will test this is still working in the latest release and get back to you. Sorry for the delay.

This is working correctly with Revit 2018, but not Revit 2019, so I will track down the problem.
