Copy Material/Paste Material copies the material settings. Copy Material to Selected applies the active object's list of materials to the other selected objects, replacing their material slots but reusing the existing materials without duplicating them. The titles and descriptions of the operations are not great. | |

@AaronFranke Still in the Material tab, in the menu with the down arrow, but now called Copy Material to Selected

It's Shift + RMB in vanilla Blender, either once or twice (selected object but not active > selected and active > unselected > selected and active > ...). Copy Material to Others does not appear in spacebar menu, because it is flagged internal, see operator definition.

How do I select an object if I've got all selected? becuase if I right click it, it unsellects all others. I've used Shit + right, but in the video I saw, he uses just right. Besides, why Copy Material to othe doesnt appear when I press space bar in 3D view (in the video it appears). Maybe it's the version (I'm using 2.72 & the video 2.65). Thanks. | |
