Use Custom Preview with the filepath or name (if loaded in Rhino) of Material

Custom Preview Shinyness when using create material (BUG ?)

To review what I’ve learned about defining materials in R6 over the last few days… Four ways? Right-click the ‘M’ (Material) input to Custom Preview and choose from the list of materials created in a Rhino file. This has a BIG ADVANTAGE over method #2 since Grasshopper apparently retains the material definition so it still works when the .3dm file (where the material was defined) is not present. Also, the material can be defined on a layer, avoiding a glaring exception error. Connect a …

'Bake to Layer' component with 'M' (Material) input?

Updated. Now handles groups. Open source Python.

What are blocks? Again, I’d rather not be distracted …

I have no clue but doubt that Rhino materials contain any properties useful for thermal analysis.
