Can I assign a material to Tags?

Hi @jbernier might want to refer to this thread instead.

How to apply materials by Tag?

I know this is probably not possible, but I ask anyways for the best alternative… I have a very complex model with many components inside components. Despite these components having many levels, they have similar geometry which share same tag. For instance, I have 3 types of buildings (components) these buildings have typological units inside of them (other components) each building has approximate 7 types of units. Each unit has glass, walls, slabs, facade, etc. All glass geometry is in tag…

The best option I selected as solution. It basically makes use of the extension ‘selection toys’ which allows you to select geometry inside groups without exploding them.

Also, you can tell whoever is exporting to assign a random material to your glass geometry so that once it is imported to Sketchup, you can just change the material properties instead of reassigning a new one.

It is what it is, but its better than nothing.
