Hi.

It would be useful if the material picker can select a material that is behind another one.
For example, a display that is behind a lens. Perhaps CTRL clicking allow you to select the material behind the one you have clicked on. Or have a list pop up.

This is similar to a feature in the latest release of FPrime.
