Material dissapeares when duplicating

[camelworks]

when I duplicate and give a material a new name. It replaces the former material and
does not duplicate.

[camelworks]

to replicate: right click material, select dupicate. rename new material, press enter

Hello - so far I don’t see this… is it 100% repeatable for you?

Hello - that is weird - can you please make a box, apply a material that misbehaves, and then export the box to a new file… try the same procedure and if it still does not work, please post or send me the file…

thanks,
