Why do you need more Material Slots? There's no limit in the number of materials the Material Map Browser can display... Just learn how to use it.

did u ever seen the material editors of any other 3d programs ,like maya, softimage etc,,, if u seen those then ull not ask this question...

 

discreet is shamelessly copying userinterface of 3dmax from alias MAYA.. discreet started it from max4 ,,,, they even copyed the simple move ,rotate gizmo styles... n those keyboard shortcuts ,,,, then y cant they change the material editor too...? max only have 24 material slots,,, all other 3d packages have endless no: ..........

That still doesn't answer my question. Why do you need more Medit Slots. If you had only 1 slot that would be enough. You're just not using it the way you should.

You need to use the Material Map Browser to view/navigate and organize materials, maps, etc. When you double click on the Browser (which can also be set to display large sample spheres if you want it to) it ends up en Medit. Simple as that.

 

I personally do not know Maya, so I cannot compare it. I just know that I could use just 6 spheres if I wanted to. And yes, my projects do have hundreds of materials.
