No render preview for own created materials

Hello,

I have the problem that sometimes I have no preview in the scene manager > materials tabs. It seems to happen with own created materials without textures.

For example:

I'm using version 3.0.11 of the plugin (I had the same behaviour also with previous versions).

thx
Daniel

The problem is the non-ASCII characters in the material name. While SketchUp 2014 adds support for non-ASCII characters, they can still cause issues in Maxwell, and should be avoided.
