Material channels in Cinerender

Hi guys, is there a way to save the material channels and other channels in Cinerender from Archicad? Something close to what Vray allows.

Thanks!

Hello Paopao,

You are able to save your scene parameters and your surfaces.
Archicad save your 3D point of view, angle, etc. ...

Right, but I can't save material channels like in Vray and other rendering software if I understand well.

If you mean to save a single channel settings so you can paste it into another channel or surface, then no.
You can only save the entire surface.

Soon after Cinerender was implemented in Archicad, Graphisoft said they would look at the ability to copy & paste settings, as apparently it is a feature of the stand-alone Cinerender software.
Hopefully they are still looking into it.
