Material nodes from Mesh node

[pam3ec]

Hello, forum!

How can I extract the materialnodes from meshnode, for editing and rendering each material separetly?
Or possible to drag&drop material from Node Inspector to Graph Editor after i picking material on a viewport?

Thanks, and sorry for my English

Hi,

At this moment there's no way to "extract" the materials from the pins. Could you please explain the benefit over modifying them directly in the node inspector ?

Thanks

the benefit over modifying them directly in the node inspector is - possibility of rendering each material separate on testball, not all scene for viewing result. For my slow videocard its tightly. Probably developers will introduce this function in the future releases?

You could also attach a material to other parts of the mesh - for testing purposes, for example.
The whole experience would be more flexible, I think.

It will be vary usefull to extract matnodes from meshnode. It will be helpfull for faster customize the scene.

Cool!

I actually missed the ability to tweak those exported materials, for example mix a RGB node with texture to control diffuse tone, or any other such corrections. So this addition is quite rational.
