Fields

Fields Collapse

Name	Type	Description
persistent	Bool	Determines whether or not this item will be saved to the server.
UpdateOrder	Int	Controls the order in which this component is updated.
Enabled	Bool	Controls whether or not this component is enabled. Some components stop their functionality when this field is disabled, but some don't.
CanApply	Bool	Setting this to false will prevent the Material Tool from applying materials to any SkinnedMeshRenderer/MeshRenderer components in the slot or child slots.

Usage

When this component is added to a Slot with a SkinnedMeshRenderer or MeshRenderer attached, it allows one to limit the effects of the Material Tool.

Examples

On an avatar, you can try adding this component to the root of the avatar, making sure the avatar has a Component:ObjectRoot, and set CanApply to false. Doing this will ensure that the avatar's material cannot be changed by the Material Tool.

Adding this component to the Slot of a MeshRender and setting CanApply to true can allow one to explicitly change the material in specific places on small objects.
