material on a component

SketchUp Pro
1

In Sketchup 2024, when I place a material on a component and want to edit this material, I get a message that says “Materials must be applied to the model before they can be edited.” What do I have to do to edit it?

Thanks

Go to the In Model materials and select it there to edit it. Click on the house icon to get to the In Model materials.

You can only edit the In Model materials, not the ones in collections.

As someone once said, Read a book!
Or more gently, perhaps spend some time at the Campus to learn some of the basics

I was trying to edit in collections, not in Model materials. It is now resolved.
Thank you very much
