Edit PSD Networks

Once you’ve created a PSD Network, you can edit it. When you edit a PSD Network you can add or remove attributes in the Edit PSD Network Options window.

To edit a PSD network

1. Do one of the following
   • Select an object or surface in the scene view that has a PSD network created for its material.
   • Select a material swatch in the Hypershade that has a PSD network.
2. Select Edit > Edit PSD Network from the Hypershade menu.

   The Edit PSD Network Options window appears.

3. Add or remove channels as necessary.
4. Do one of the following:
   • If you’re finished all the PSD network editing you want to do, click Edit.

   Your changes are saved, and the Edit PSD Network Options window closes.

   • If you want to continue editing another PSD network, click Apply.

   Your changes are saved, but the Edit PSD Network Options window remains open so that you can select another object, surface, or material to edit. When you’re finished, and you’ve applied all your changes, click Close.
