This is the file used to create Figure 7-3 in the book. By left-clicking the OB and ME buttons in the Links and Pipeline panel below, you should be able to interactively see what I was trying to explain in that chapter. Currently, Material is linked to the Cube mesh data. If you left-click the OB button and select the Material datablock above it, you’ll see that the Material is tied to both the Cube object data *and* it’s mesh data. Left-click the ME button and the X next to to Material datablock and you’ll eliminate the connection between Material and the mesh data. Cool, huh?
