How to avoid the term "Generated from GDL", and name object materials in All Finishes scheme?

Hello!

I have a problem regarding a lcf-folder with gsm-files, jpg-files and MASTER_GDL-scripts. These objects can be shown in the Object Inventory Scheme, but their materials can't be shown in All Finishes scheme. Instead of naming some of the materials of the object it just says Generated from GDL. What am I doing wrong? All materials that comes with the object have been transfered to the Surface Library from the MASTER_GDL scripts.

Seems like the unnamed materials comes from the parameter-script. I have made them default materials in a drop-down menu bar. The rest of the materials that can be shown in the All Finishes scheme are selectable from the Surface Library. Are there any differences?
