   Our lab has purchased two .flt files from Viewpoint for use with Performer.
Unfortunately, we have not yet purchased a modeller capable of loading,
modifying and saving .flt format object files. The problem I have is that
I need to change material attributes of the specific .flt file without
affecting the other objects. I've tried pfOverride(PFFRONT_MTL,PF_ON)
(I don't have the code in front of me, but you get the picture), but this
causes all objects to take on the current default material. The other
objects are .obj format and use material files to define their attributes.
   There must be a simple way to do this, but I am at a loss as to what
it would be.

Thanks,
