Hi there,
I've got another little Problem.
I want to display in the ActiveObjectManager a specific Channel of the currently selected Material.
I tried this:

BaseChannel* chan = mat->GetChannel(CHANNEL_COLOR);  
ActiveObjectManager_SetObject(ACTIVEOBJECTMODE_SHADER, chan, true);

but it does not work, neither with ACTIVEOBJECTMODE_MATERIAL.

are there things i could have overlooked?

Thanks in advance,

affa

does anyone know help?

Is there a possibility to send the right message to the ActiveObjectManager?
I mean if i first let him display the Material Attributes, and then make him display only a specific channel?

Channels are simply groups (tabs) within the main material description. Unfortunately there's no way to control which tab is shown afaik. To show the actual shader set in the channel you can use chan->GetShader() instead.

Thanks very much for the answer.
Although it's bad that it isn't possible

The thing with the shader I already noticed, thanks.
So I must think about an other solution
