Hello all,
When copying/cutting and pasting objects in my scene, the materials used on those objects get duplicated in the material palette.
The now duplicated materials cant be removed by using the 'Edit > Delete duplicate materials' option, even though the duplicated materials are identical to the ones they were copied from.
My current workaround is to alt+drag the new material over the old one, merging them back into one. Not particularly problematic but I can end up with a big stack of duplicate materials quite quickly which then need merging.
Ideal fix - Materials don't duplicate when copy/pasting objects.
Next best fix - 'Delete duplicate materials' works as it should.
Does anyone else have this same issue? Any insight into this would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Calum
