Render Appearance Library

The Render Appearance Library is a local, read-only library for render appearances. You assign render
appearances to materials using the Materials dialog.
When you change the properties of a render appearance, the modified render appearance is stored as part
of the project file. It is not stored in the read-only Render Appearance Library.
To share a modified render appearance with team members, click Manage tab
panel Transfer Project Standards. Be sure to also make available any custom bitmaps or image files used
to define bump patterns or custom colors used by the render appearance.
