Add a Material Link node (

) under a
Materials node in a model component to add a link to a material that you have added under the global
Materials node (

) and use it as a material in that component’s geometry. The
Material Link node’s
Settings window is similar to the
Settings window for a material node (see
The Settings Window for Material), with the exception that there is no
Material Properties sections. Instead, it includes the following section:
From the Material list, select the global material that you want to link to:
Click the Go to Material button (

) to move to the selected material node. Click the
Add Material from Library button (

) to add a global material from the material libraries or a new blank global material. The added material then becomes the one selected in the
Material list.
