Custom Appearance Library Sync To Project?

[Anonymous]

I am working for a company that makes custom conference tables so we use a lot of different veneers in our renderings and we would like to set up an appearance library that would be used by anyone that has access to a project. Is this possible?

Hi @Anonymous, 

You can't create and share a custom material library in Fusion today.  That functionality is being worked on and should be in the software later this year. 

One way you can share them today is to create a "dummy document" that has the custom materials assigned to some geometry.  Other project members can open that document and save the custom materials to their Favourite materials. Then those saved favourites can be assigned to other geometry.

Not ideal but it is a stop gap measure until the proper shared library is released.

Hope that helps

That still saves us a lot of time over recreating each appearance!

Thank you for your time.

Hi,

Can you share a video. I could not understand the process.
