Title: Reassign material
Post by: Tengiz on October 02, 2015, 11:35:27 PM

Hi
"Reassign material" does not work, if I assign new material on reference objects. Or if I press button "clear"
When will this option work?

Hi, "Reassign Material" is not for that. This button rebuilds the auto-material that Forest generates (http://docs.itoosoft.com/display/FORESTPACK/Add+Geometry#AddGeometry-ConsolidateMaterials) and assigns to itself, when "Consolidate Material" is on.
It contains all materials used in the Geometry List. This option is rarely used, because it should work well by default.

There is not any option to reassign the material from custom object. Anyway, if you "clear" it, Forest will use the material assigned to the custom object, so this Material parameter is optional.
