How to remove the texture/material from an object?

[actarus1]

Hello~

I'm using softimage 3.7, I've assign an material/texture to an object, and later i would like to remove all texture/material from it so that it change back to a "grey solid" in the shade mode and in preview mode, how can I do??

There are a few ways, but here are two of the most common.

Open up a schematic view and turn on the material display option. This will show all the materials, select the ones that you don't want and delete them.

or

I've got a free plugin on my web page www.EdHarriss.com (under plugins, Softimage3D) that will delete all the materials and textures on the selected objects. It's called Blackout. After you install it, select the object, then chose Model>Effect>Blackout.

Hope this helps.
