Inherit group members material.
#1
The title said it all. 

I feel really stupid, but can't figure this out. 

I have a regular group (several object with different materials). 
In tyFlow I use Shape operator with "split group members" checked, and bellow I have checked in the material option "inherit from reference". 
Nothing. Tried both Vray inastance and Triangle mesh in mesh operator.  
It just renders Tyflow icon color. No point of assigning material to it, because my group members have several materials (every member has it's own material). 

Do I need to make like new material multi sub object, then assign to my group, making sure every group member have it's unique mat ID? 

In particle flow, just picking a group, with "group members" selected, makes every part of the group with it's own material. Simple as that. 

I guess, it's something simple I am missing?

Inheriting material from group members is not yet implemented. Currently it will try to inherit the material from the group box container itself, not the members.

Hey Ty Smile
Thanks
I've tried that, after reading the help.
It was the same.

I'll try again now.

Any other approaches?

Ok... now I get it ....
I'll try then to ungroup and just pick every object separately.
