Are per-face materials possible? Exporting with multiple Material ID's

Rendering
1

I’m trying to find a way to setup a Brep so when I export it as a mesh to 3dsMax, it will exports with Material ID’s on specific faces. I’m wondering if applying a different material to select faces will allow it to export into 3dsMax with the correct Material ID’s. However, I cannot find a way to assign a material to a selected face. Is this even a feature in Rhino yet?

Hi Cyclist -

Yes. Make a sub-object selection. Then, from the Materials panel, right-click a material and assign to the selected sub-object.
