Hi HHbomb,
a workaround could be:
open material editor
utilitis > reset material editor slot
pick all material from object you want
material converter > convert Slots materials

Thank you very much Paride ! :mrgreen:
I'm sooo stu..id sometimes. I just use slate for material ( and not classic mat editor ) and rarely open render setup window... and forget these 3 usefull buttons...
It would be great to have these 3 buttons as macros ( we have just "Do Material Conversion" which is not correct as it convert lights too...)
Cheers.

Hi HHbomb,
What do you mean you need to reassign the materials to objects?

When I have one object with multisubobject material, it works.
But when I have several objects with a material, material slots are converted but objects keep their original materials.
