DBUG> Fw: o2c question

[modcon <mmodernc@bigpond.net.au>]

Hey that means you can specify a material and texture for every entity in
your model.
All you need is a shift and control selection facility in the materials list
to save setting every entity separately if they have common characteristics.
(This does not appear to be available at present.)
So if you have a room with four different coloured walls you can give each a
separate color.
Which may or may not solve the arch problem withou having to model the arch
separately.
