Hello, all. I've been away for a while. Got real sick and couldn't spend much time at the PC. Feeling better now and getting back into Stephen's marvelous toy. I am building the most detailed models I ever have. Crap ton (for me) of eye candy surface details.
I have a possibly stupid question about materials. (Don't believe there are stupid questions? Watch a video of Rumsfeld and the newsies during Desert Shield/Storm.) Here goes: I know how to edit a material and how to copy one. What if I am cleaning up the project and I want to delete a material? Is there a way to do that?
Thanks in advance. I'll go back to my rat killing and leave you good folks alone.

0. View the object which includes the Material you want to delete
1. Enable the viewing of the Materials menu
2. In the resulting menu of Material icons, Select (double-left-mouse-button-click on) the material you want to delete
3. In the resulting popup menu for that particular Material, Select the "Delete" button
4. In the resulting popup verification option, Select the "OK" button

Yeah, I finally saw the delete button on the material. Talk about a flat-forehead moment!

It took me a little while to see the button, too. I expected it to be down at the bottom, not in the center.
