I’m having issues with my materials in sketchup. I put basic colors on my model to make it easy to change the colors later in Vray materials. for example I paint all the walls red, all the windows blue etc. But my sketchup keeps adding 10000 of red and 1000 of blue while it’s just the same evrytime I paint a new face it makes a New color…
It makes it very hard to change everyting in Vray after that …
I just want sketchup to keep ONE red color, ONE orange, ONE blue , etccc
I tried purging my model to delete the unused colors etcc but it doesn’t delete anything ! my models sees every color as a different one… never had that issue before
thank you for your help

This bug used to be transparent colors, only and was fixed.
Perhaps it is back in another form…
Have you got other extensions running?
Depending on your modeling style, you might wanna use Tags for applying textures with V-Ray (rightclick: apply to layer) and forget about the color panel.
Good to know as usually we recommend that users update to latest version first… but if that doesn’t solve the issue we’ll look into other ideas as I’m sure this question/problem will come up again
I found a solution for now on, I just make sure everytime I paint a new face to select the color I wanna use. I have to do it over and over again but it works. It doesn’t create a new one when I do it like that . But I hope they will fix this problem …
