Lot of people ask for procedurals. I ask only the basic...

just a "blend" procedural from white to black, linear, radial, angle.
How many materials in Mxm gallery use this basic maps? And you have to download every time the same...

Than woud be great the ability to move up and down layers and to copy them from materials...and to use the wizard that doesn't erase layers but add layers you created before.

Thank you,
Ricky

Thats a really good one. I totaly agree.

I agree.

We all agree that procedurals are very important... If you are a max user, there is a way to do this, use the render map option (don't remember exactly where it is) and you can export a hi-res bitmap of your procedural (tile, smoke, blend, noise etc)

I would love to see a way to have layers to behave hierarchically, at least visually speaking:



this would be handy even if just to keep the material organized.

I'd like to add 2 wishes:

1. "always on top" option turned off by default! I know what's mxed is, where is it and when to use it...
2. window resizable in all directions, both in Standalone and Studio mxed. This bugs me mostly in studio mac version, where it's really annoying to lose control over the uppdate button from time to time...

i agree JDP, but this look's like a nodal material layers....we'll have to wait for MR 2
