Purpose

Scans materials for visually duplicate looks so teams can spot library bloat, repeated authoring, and inconsistent reuse before those costs spread further.

How to Use (Step-by-Step)

  1. Open Duplicate-Look Detector from the Art menu and choose whether to scan the current selection or a project folder.
  2. Set the sensitivity level based on how strictly you want the tool to treat small value differences.
  3. Run the scan to group materials that appear visually identical or nearly identical.
  4. Review each duplicate group to see which materials can probably be merged, reused, or retired, then use either the Group To Select dropdown or the Select Group button on a result card to focus one specific group.
  5. Export the JSON report if you want to plan cleanup with the team or track the duplicate library work over time.
