    Thanks. I’ve noticed that after I select the chest wood and copy material to selected…..and then select the floor wood and copy material to selected…..and then switch back to the chest wood material it takes the current active object (in this case part of the floor) and adds it to the treasure chest material.

    So I’m guessing the best practice is to select an object that’s part of the material you’re editing instead of switching the material in the shader editor?
