Changing SBSAR material properties

1. If the Twist Jar group isn’t open, click its Group icon to open it.

2. Hover over the Jar model (not the lid), and click the right arrow icon to reveal the model materials.

   

3. Since Geometric Metal is a parametric SBSAR material, there are numerous adjustable parameters defined by the material creator. To start, enter 2.1 for both the X and Y Repeat.

   

4. Experiment by adjusting the sliders for the rest of the parameters in the Properties panel. I used Wind Shim Embossed for the Pattern Selection, 0.27 for the Rotation, 0.73 for the Gap, and 1.6 for the Bevel, and left the rest of the values as-is.
