  Hi,
 
  I'm just changing someones old scene and have come across
'locked' Materials and I don't know how to unlock them.
 
 
  e.g.
 
  Material1 (Lock)
 
  (not in italics)
 
 
  is showing up next to my materials. Had a quick look in the
online help but no joy yet.
 
  Anyone know how to unlock them?
 
  Cheers,
 
  Adam.
