Hello, I'm looking for a way to help better organise all my materials in the Mat context.

I see I can create container nodes, with different materials inside, but those materials no longer show in the list when I'm selecting which material to use via a Material SOP.

Is there a way to group or organise materials in the Mat context, rather than just having hundreds of materials all in one massive grid or line?

How about creating several material networks?

Hi thanks Tanto, I learnt something today! I never realised you could create your own material networks!
I thought all materials should be created in the Mat context. I guess I could now have a Geo container called 'materials' with multiple material networks inside there.

Thanks!
