Applying Materials...

I apologie in advance for what I am sure will be the banality of this question. I had some clothes for genesis 2 female model. In the library windows I click on workday dress and it drops the dress on the model and all is lovely. One level further there is a MATERIALS section where there seem to be 2 additional variations of the same clothes. If I click them, nothing happens...so I am wondering...are materials in clothing working differently than say the items in the material section (on left) for skin/eyes etc...

Im a bit confused (being new to this) so I was wondering if there was just something I wasn't "getting".

Thanks for any insight!

    Did you have the clothing item selected (you can check using the scene tab) before trying to apply the new materials. It you had Genesis(2) selected when applying the clothing, DS keeps the Genesis figure selected, and you have to change the selection manually.

    That would be the problem, you will need to select the clothing in the Scene Tab and then Add the new Material. And if the clothing is in parts that load as parts you will need to select the right part to apply its material.

    do you know what?

    I am a total dope....you were spot on. Evidently, when clicking around I wasn't selecting the outfit...thanks for the reminder there. I selected it in the SCENE window then the materials choices popped right up on the left in Smart Control and boom there it was.

    Thanks for the help...perfect!!
