    In the ``Material`` tab, you can see a list of all materials that are part of the model asset.

    You can click the ``Exctract and Remap Materials`` button to extract all materials from the model asset into separate material assets in the project.

.. note::
    Detailed information about materials has read-only properties because materials cannot be changed inside the model asset.

    Here you can see a material preview to understand what kind of textures the material uses.

    The material preview has several modes:
    - Sphere mesh
    - Cube mesh
    - Quad mesh
    - Plane mesh
    - Cylinder mesh

.. note::
    Currently, the material preview shows only unlit color.
    Shaded rendering will be added in future patches.
