If you drag the material from an archive then it will appear in the palette where it can be edited and saved
with the scene if necessary.
Presenter uses Roamer's selection resolution to decide which items to apply the material to when
dragging from an archive or palette onto the main view. When hovering over any item in the main view,
the proposed selection will turn the selection color (blue by default). When you drop the material onto the
current selection, it will be applied to all the items selected. If you drop the material onto an item that is
not currently selected, it will be applied to just that item.
You can also apply materials to items by selecting the items in the JetStream selection tree or scene and
then right-clicking on the material in the palette and selecting Apply to selected items from the context
menu.
Rules can also be used to apply materials to items based on their layer or color or selection set names,
for example. See Chapter 31, Presenter Rules for more information on this.
Applying a material to items
1. Select the items in the main navigation window, or by using the selection tree.
2. Choose your material from an archive or palette, right click on this material and choose Apply to
selected items from the context menu to assign the material to those items selected. Note that the
material will only be applied to those items and not to every instance of the item, if it is a multiply
instanced block or cell. To assign the material to all instances of a multiply instanced block or cell in
the scene, instead choose Apply to all instances of selection from the context menu.
3. Alternatively, you can simply drag-and-drop a material from an archive or palette onto items in the
selection tree or main navigation window to assign those materials to the items. Note that the
selection resolution determines which items will receive the materials. See the section called
"Selection Resolution" in the chapter called "Selecting" in the Roamer book for more information on
selection resolution.
25.3. Removing Presenter Materials
You can remove materials assigned to items either from the material or from the item:
Removing a material from items
1. Right click on the item in the main navigation window, or the selection tree and choose Presenter,
Remove Material from the context menu. This item on the menu will only be available if the item
right clicked on has a material assigned to it at that selection resolution in the tree - see the section
on Inheritance below.
2. Alternatively, right click on the material in the palette that you want to remove from items in the
scene.
3. From the context menu, choose Remove from all items to remove all assignments of the material
from all items in the scene.
