Hi,

It is possible, you just have to click on the free space after the layer name.
Nevertheless, this is reported now and will be improved - right click on any part of the row should open the context menu.

Hello, I'm having issues with the Vantage export: all the materials that have a Color Correction texture (max native one, not the plugin) don't get translated properly and have missing textures in Vantage, is this a known issue?

I've tried for testing to remove the color correction but my maxscript is not great and i can't get the original texture to be translated:

for m in (getClassinstances color_correction) do replaceInstances m (BitmapTexture texmap:(getSubTexmap m 1))

Can anyone help?

maru:
I tried with the 3ds Max Color Correction and Corona Color Correct and the results seem pretty close. Could you please specify what exactly you mean by "don't get translated properly and have missing textures"? Could you share a sample scene, or at least screenshots showing what you are getting?

Update: I am pasting a maxscript I wroteChatGPT wrote. It removes the Corona Color Correct and Max Color nodes from material diffuse slots and instead plugs the bitmaps directly. It works for any material which is assigned to any scene object. I couldn't force it to affect all material editor materials, even unassigned.
