Will you be bringing the ability to change the tones and colours of a material to materials such as the wood and stone materials in visualisation?
As I often require to adjust these in other apps to get a more realistic/ better match to help show a client what the design of furniture will look like.
If you were able to either lighten or darken the tone it would reduce the need for large numbers of alternative materials if the current ones can then be adapted.
I note that in some materials you already have this feature to change the colour but having this ability in wood and stone would allow far greater versitility for these materials.
Currently I am having to use alternative render apps to allow tone and colour choices in wood and stone to present to my clients.
