Subject: Re: Which shader is using texture
I seem to remember back in the past somewhere.... maybe XSI v2... that
when you opened a render tree all the objects that shared that shader
would turn turn red (wire frame). this doesn't seem t happen any more..
at lest not in my XSI set up. is this a custom behavior... removed
feature... can I turn it on again? it *used* to happen by default.
or was I imagining it?
anyone?
