Applying different materials to each instance of group

Hello everyone.

 

I have several instances of the same group in my project, but I need them to be slightly different. Specifically, I need to be able to change the materials of some instances without affecting the others. I cannot ungroup them because I need to still be able to make changes to those instances and I want to avoid making those changes several times to different groups.

 

Thanks in advance.

What about selecting and duplicating each Group instance? This would turn each Group instance into a new, different Group. You could then Edit Group and assign different Materials, assuming the Grouped Elements' Material Parameters are  Instance Type Parameters.

Yes, I ended doing just that. Only problem now is that if I need to change anything other than materiais in each group, I'll have to do that 3 times, since now I have 3 different group types. If I had to begin  everything over I think it would be more helpful to have the groups modeled as families instead of groups, but I don't think it will be productive to do that now haha

 

Thanks for the response!
