The Material Editor allows us to create a Material that gives a Mesh a specific visual appearance when it comes into contact with Light in a Scene. The Material files have an .incmat
as their filename extension.
To open the Material Editor, double-click on a Material file in the Asset Manager or right-click on the Menu bar in Incari and click on Material Editor from the drop-down list. This can be seen in the illustration below:
The sections defined in the Material Editor are discussed below:
Note: These sections will not be opened if a Material file has already been opened in the Material Editor.
The Used Materials
section has Materials that have been previously applied to a Mesh in a Scene. These Materials can be edited by clicking on them.

Open Material
opens a window that allows us to select an existing Material file. An example of the window is shown below:
Once a Material has been opened, the Material Editor allows the user to edit the Material's Attributes, as shown in the images below.
