Hi,

The Setting:
Two Explorerwindows opened, one is set to materials, the otherone to Objects.
Made an new Material-Lib in the window, set do Materials.
Then selected a bunch of objects and unsed 'select Materials used by'
In the Materialwindow now the materials are selected.

The Problem:
When I try to grab those selected materials to drag them into the new lib, it looses the focus and only one material is selected.

Is there any way to move the whole selection ?
(cut&paste does not worke, while the materials get disconected (<not used>) by this.

Thanks in advance :)

xsi 6.0 introduced the new Material Manager. Which is really nice but I don't use that much by the way :P
But for material management (duh!), it's quite good... so do it in there (ctrl+7) create a new matlib (libraries>new material library), then multi-select and drag materials to the new matlib tab.
