There is a problem when coloring in 2D animation. It's troublesome to recreate the color every time I create a new file. Can I import the colors after exporting them? Or can't I register in the Asset Library? I pressed all the buttons, but I don't think they're there, but I'm asking if I missed something

If you save a file with Materials in it, you can link to the material from your new file, or append it from that file. The difference is that a link points to the material in the original file; meaning that if you change the material in the original file it will automatically change in any file that links it; but append copies the material so it's now a new material in the new file.

Here's a step by step example:

  • Go to the File menu, select Link

Selecting Link from the file menu

  • A file browser will appear. Navigate to the file you want and click on it. Rather than opening the file, the browser will look something like this:

  • Navigate to Material, go to the material you want and select it.

Selecting a material

  • Click Link. You will now have the material in your open blend file to use as you want.

  • I can use append and link. Thank you for letting me know the difference and attaching a screenshot. Thanks to you, I think I can use the blender without any inconvenience. Have a nice day. – supermoon1234 Apr 19 '22 at 17:19
