      Hi, I am having a problem importing textures into Paint Bucket. It seems that it should be easy, but confounds me. I have down loaded some .skp file textures from 3D Warehouse. I then open my SU file and import. The textures will only download to colours in model. My textures are metals and bricks and I would like to import them to the appropriate material file in the drop-down list. They refuse to move. So 1. Can I import directly to an appropriate file, 2. can I transfer from colours in model to another header file such as metals? If I go to Paint Bucket and click List and New Texture (also can right click in the field, the .skp files are not highlighted, so can not be downloaded from my texture file. I know it must be easy, but......

        If you go to the Help Knowledge Base you'll get some good info.

        One way would be this: Go to Colors In Model and drag the materials you want to save down to the palette at the bottom of the Materials window. Then switch to the desired library and drag them up from the palette.

        You can also create a new library. Somewhere I wrote up a thing to show how to do this. I'll have to hunt up the link.
