ah, sorry. Linking and proxies are a maze to me regarding what you can and cannot change/modify/adjust. I am glad Campbell will figure it out :)
It seems to me that the display of an object should be localized to the machine it is being displayed on. The intent with all the display modes is to conserve and allow the user to best direct CPU power to show them what they need. Since CPU power is specific to the machine, and not the object, I think you should be able to set/override/change the display settings (even for a library linked obj) in your blender session. --Roger ----- Original Message ---- From: malefico <malef...@licuadorastudio.com> To: bf-blender developers <bf-committers@blender.org> Sent: Wed, June 2, 2010 9:13:46 AM Subject: Re: [Bf-committers] Arbitrary materials for mesh display in viewport (solid view) Oh well, you're talking about the original character... I was referring to the linked one used in animation. I meant a way the animator should not have to deal with the original rig in library :) Best regards malefico.
