Upon creating materials in the Material Editor of Studio, I can either export MXM or 'drag and drop' the material into the appropriate folder shown in the Material Browser.

If I choose to export, and then create a new folder for my material, that new folder doesn't show up in the Material Browser until I shut down Studio and the restart.

If I just drag and drop into a folder that already exists, the material will show in the preview, but not in the file name list.

Is there a way we can get the material browser to recognize updates in the file structure (both added folders as well as files) without closing the file and re-starting?

Thanks
Paxton

ps..using 1.7.1 32bit on WinXP. I will test the Mac version later and see if it has the same issue.

Nothing happens if I change the panel and back..same file structure (less whatever was added) still shows.

It doesn't update if I just open another MXS and then return.

It is only if I shut down Studio and then restart, then the modified file structure is intact.
Will there be a Maxwell Render 6 ?
