Mesh > Transfer Shading Sets

The Transfer Shading Sets tool allows you to transfer the shading assignment data between two objects that may be topologically different. For example, you can transfer shading assignment data from a cube to a sphere. Faces in similar locations are assigned the same shading data.

Select first the source object, then the target object and select Mesh > Transfer Shading Sets > .
