Problem with metals in Skindigo

[Camara]

Hi, Skindigo users!
First of all, sorry for the english. I will try to explain my problem the best i can.
I'm new to Skindigo, and i have a problem with the metal preset.
When i put, for example, chrome to a material and go to next material and choose aluminium, the chrome change's to aluminium.

It look's like i can only can have one metal per scene. It's this true ou a bug in my Skindigo?

Skindigo and Indigo - a match made in heaven!

Did you try to apply a metal preset to the same material? In other words, do the 'metal' objects in yours scene share the same material? Are they both, say, the same SU colour?

If so: don't do that.

Thanks for the quick aswer, but the problem remains. All my metal objects have diferent SU names and still changing one, changes all of them.

It still sounds like you are using the same sketchup material. and applying the different metals to the same one. If not, sorry.

Try applying different metals to completely different materials as a test. And after doing so, open up the Material Query dialog box and see what it says.

Problem solved! The program works fine. I didn't notice that the "apply preset" shows the preset to use and not the metal on the material. The material of the object is the "Nkdata" file below.

Thanks for helping a noob.
