This is perfect!!! I have been trying to solve this problem by running some
functions in line (procedurally) and having a call to all VRayMtls and
adding vray_material_id to them all then executing another function to
assign appropriate IDs to VRayMtls.
E.g.,
assignVrayMaterialIDs()
assignCustomIDsToMaterials()
but your solution using the format() method is soooo much better!!!
Thanks!
