|Mesh|Mesh| The mesh to be rendered. Can be a [[StaticMesh (Component)|StaticMesh]] or a [[:Category:Components:Assets:Procedural Meshes|Procedural Mesh]]
|Mesh|{{RootFieldType|AssetRef`1|[[Type:Mesh|Mesh]]}}|TypeAdv0=true| The mesh to be rendered. Can be a [[StaticMesh (Component)|StaticMesh]] or a [[:Category:Components:Assets:Procedural Meshes|Procedural Mesh]]
|Materials|Material| A list of materials to be applied to the mesh

|MaterialPropertyBlocks|MaterialPropertyBlock|
|MaterialPropertyBlocks|{{RootFieldType|SyncAssetList`1|[[Type:MaterialPropertyBlock|MaterialPropertyBlock]]}}|TypeAdv2=true| A list of material property blocks to apply to the materials on this mesh. Usually used for performance reasons where using multiple similar materials would take more resources.
|ShadowCastMode|ShadowCastMode| How this object will cast shadows onto the world, or if it <i>only</i> draws a shadow.

|SplitSubmeshes:[[Type:Action|Action]]|[[Type:Action|Action]]|false| Will split this mesh into additional submeshes, each having only one material.
|MergeByMaterial:[[Type:Action|Action]]|[[Type:Action|Action]]|false| Will merge all submeshes that use the same material.
|SplitSubmeshes:[[Type:ButtonEventHandler|ButtonEventHandler]]|[[Type:ButtonEventHandler|ButtonEventHandler]]|true| Called when the split submeshes button is touched.
|MergeByMaterial:[[Type:ButtonEventHandler|ButtonEventHandler]]|[[Type:ButtonEventHandler|ButtonEventHandler]]|true| Called when the merge by material button is touched.
