I don't know how to do that : Let's say I have a grid of 10 particles moving in a simultion (Master). Let's say I create another grid of 100 particles (slaves). I want those 100 particles to follow in position, rotation and scale the 10 master particles. I don't want the slaves to get the

Update Referenced Material Library from any scene?

Hi all! In the doc it is said there should be a "master scene" in which all materials in the referenced material library should be managed. Is it possible to escape this requirement, and have any scene being able to update an external MatLib? Thanks, David

So for each point in cloud A you want the same corresponding(i) in cloud B to be the scaling and rotation pivot? Do you additionally want it to be position driver? I don't know how you're applying the transformations, but basically just center A ones on B ones: cloudA[i].position *-*

A master scene is kinda vital to a healthy production workflow, but imho you should avoid referenced material libraries. They're flaky at best, and when things go wrong they go horribly wrong. We tried a couple of times to use the feature, but every time ran into issues across scenes or
