Daz Studio: Shaders + Selection

Blastedlabs

Right now, in order to apply a shader, you need to have the item selected in scene select and then the material zone selected in the shader editor. This means it takes a lot of extra steps to apply shaders to 7 or 8 items, like multipiece armor.  I'd like it to automatically select the item when you select the material zone so you can apply shaders without ever going to the scene select.

If you hold down the ctrl key while double-clicking theb preset you will get a dialogue box, one of the options is for applying the shader to all surfaces or selected surfaces (with the latter the default).

You can use the surface selection tool (3 little cards fanned out) to select both object and surface at once. And, if you hold down the ctrl at the same time (win) you can stack the selections.

 

Oh and right click ing when you click over a surface you want to select will give you a pretty wide variety of options for addional selections.
