While I welcome the addition of the material manager, I do miss the feature that allowed you to change the entire part’s material inside the model’s descendants. What’s the available workaround for this lost feature?
Right click the model in the Explorer tab and click Select Children, which selects all the direct children of the model.
If you have other models or folders inside the first model then click the > next to the item to see its children (and so on until all Parts/MeshParts/Unions are visible in the Explorer window.
Once all the children are visible, left click the first child then press Shift + left click on the last child.
Now that everything’s Properties are visible in the Properties window you can go to Materials and change them all to whatever Material you want.
