It would be nice to have some kind of organiser, like a sorting/category system. I wish I could only show the bricks of one particular color, so I can only change bricks that are that color, for example, if i built a castle with just plastic material, and it's all dark stone grey , I would want to select only that color of brick and change the material to cobblestone or concrete for example, if you like the idea, show your support below!

yes, that would be very cool. especially since roblox borked the paint tool so you can't color parts inside models or color parts very quickly [audience laffs]

My fort has a lot of bricks, it would take hours to manually do it one by one, the entire place, If i was able to just select all bricks of that one color the problem would be solved.

Scripts would lag, + how often have you seen this? Recently? it would be quicker to have a system in place to organise it. But if you want the link me to a script that would do it, then ok.

>"Scripts would lag" DYING. You clearly have no knowledge of how scripts work. A script that only runs once wouldn't even cause a hiccup, depending on the amount of work it's doing. But not something like this. for _,v in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do if v:IsA("BasePart") and v ~= workspace.Terrain then if v.BrickColor == BrickColor.new("Dark stone grey") and v.Material == Enum.Material.Plastic then v.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Light stone grey") v.Material = "Concrete" end end end

No, a script to change the material of a brick would cause lag, there are already enough scripts running changing the material of 5000 + grey bricks at my place by script would cause problems. Sorry for not being more specific.

if you have 5000 grey bricks (assuming your statement was not hyperbolic) why would you need a menu to see them all additionally, you can select all of the bricks in the explorer/game window and change them from the properties

*more then 5000, I can't because the other pieces would be changed, I only want a certain colour which i would like to make a material to be changed it'll be useful to have a sort/organiser system for the workspace. same reason the catalog, model searching has a sorting system.
