As far as I understand the option RELATIVE / METERS in the material definition changes the way the user enters the mapping data.
So, if in RELATIVE mode a user may choose a value of X= 0,5 and y= 0,5, when switching to real scale in Meters, it should change to X= 2 and y= 2 in order to keep the materials settings unaltered.
Currently this is not taken into account in the Material Editor Interface, and by changing the MODE (RELATIVE / METERS) it changes the material definition also.
It would be safer, if the entered values could be updated automatically, in order to keep the material unchanged unvoluntarily in case the user decides to change the MODE from Relative to Meters or viceversa.
