Linking Stuff

This entry shows how you can transfer or "link" the materials, or modifiers of on object to another.  In this example we'll be applying the Displacement Modifier on the cube (on the right) to the UV Sphere on the left.  The link menu can be brought up with [Ctrl + L].  Note that the objects to be linked must be selected, with the object donating the modifier (or other attributes) selected last.

In looking at the menu you'll notice that this is a great way to copy animations from one object to another.
