Edit a Material

Use the Material Editor to make materials appear exactly as you want.

The texture, color, and other properties of materials can be modified in the Material Editor.

Edit a Material

Tap the i icon next to the material you wish to edit.

From the Edit Material window, you can change the following properties:

  • Name: To help identify the material

  • Color: When a material has both texture and color, the two are multiplied together.

  • Texture: Textures are images loaded from your Photo Library or camera. Once imported, you can crop, and edit the horizontal and vertical scale of the texture.

  • Bump or normal: Load a texture to apply bumpiness based on the image.

  • Opacity: Load a black and white bitmap. The white areas will appear solid and the black areas will be transparent.

  • Transparency: A higher value means the material will be more transparent.

  • Gloss: A higher value will add a shiny gloss effect to the material.

  • Direct reflection: A higher value will increase the amount of reflectivity visible when looking directly at a face.

  • Oblique reflection: A higher value will increase the amount of reflectivity visible when looking at a face from an oblique angle.
