In the materials list (right click),
could it be possible to replace
Remove Unused by
Select Unused
Because this feature is a little stressful

Sometimes I want to clean my list, but without removing some materials.

Did you know you can Undo it?

Yes,
but its not really convenient to make a choice between materials.
Especially when you have fifty or more...
I know this is not essential, but it would be more useful like that.

You mean, you would select the unused ones and then manually eliminate some of them. Is it? Otherwise, I dont see another benefit.

Yes, exactely,
I was confronted several times at this scenario.
Just a little change for a little feature ^^

Adobe products have exactly the same "select unused" options for styles, colors, etc. I'd also prefer to have the items selected than deleted right away. Sometimes I just want to check which items are unused. Sometimes I wish Maya had the same options instead of default Optimize Scene Size that just removes unused nodes. But I almost don't use studio, so that's just me ยข2
