| ![Scene Override Material](/api/media?file=/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/media/NewItem377.png)**Scene Override Material** | Temporary visual override of all materials visible in the scene using predefined shaders/materials:- **Checker**: displays all objects with UVs (texture coordinates) applied with a checker texture. Objects with no UVs applied are displayed in a flat purplish color.- **Clay**: displays all objects of the scene with the same white material (clay-like). Handy to check where faces are flipped, combined with the Rendering Mode set to `BF Color` (pink).- **Specular**: displays all objects of the scene with the same reflective orange material.- **Zebra**: displays all objects of the scene with a zebra shader to visualize light reflection breaks.- **Color By Part**: displays each object of the scene with a different randomized color.- **Vertex colors**: displays the colors applied to mesh vertices, if any. If no color is applied, the mesh appears transparent. |
