Since I ran quiete often into this situation:

When having 2 or more materials, say from quixel megascans, it would be a huge help to simple select these materials and when creating a composite material everything is hooked up correctly. Right now you have to copy the nodes over to the composite material and can't even copy/paste the whole material.

Is there any way to make this happen?

Cheers and thanks for the great work!

You may convert any octane materials to sub materials. See context menu in node editor. Then you can connect to composite material.

Oh, I didn't know that... it makes things certainly easier and faster, thanks for the tip.

Still, there are a few copy/pastes/delete steps to it. I know suchs things have no priority but maybe you can can keep it in mind that an automated system would be a big time saver. Converting all selected materials to sub materials and connect them to ONE composite material when creating a new composite material would be great.
