remove unassigned materials from an object... how do I do this? I'm currently using Blender 2.8 and the function to remove unassigned materials from a mesh doesn't seem to be available anywhere. In 2.79 there were 2 addon's that dealt with this, "Material Utils Specials" and "Amaranth". They both had options for cleaning out material slots on an object. What is the workflow in 2.8 for doing this?
If a material is not assigned then it could be in the orphan data, just purge your orphan data and that should do the trick
