Does anyone have an Enscape Library decorder of sorts? Whenever I open the material library the materials have titled like “Fabric 08” and “Fabric 09” but the circles look the same - so I cannot tell what is different about the materials. There are no descriptions.

Is there something I am missing?

Thanks!

I don’t have a catalog, but if you import them, you can see the differences. With the small texture and similar color, you can’t tell them apart in the thumbnail. Enscape should implement a Pop-up zoom window that you can expand to your whole screen to see the subtleties of each material.

Yah I knew that part. I was just hoping to avoid the whole importing only to delete it once I see what it looks like in actuality. It’s extra work and a bit of a time waster.
