Tab Builder Apply Button

Having only started using 2011 a month ago, I was warned about the so called "Apply"

button that was added to the Tab Builder.  I thought at the time I would get used to it

just one extra step after filling out my property values.  But now that I am modifying the

Tab builder values and have my material editor linked to my material property, what a pain

when you go to edit the material within the tab builder and it wants you to apply the changes

made prior.

Anyone else find this annoying?  I am assuming there is no work around if one is to

insist on having the material editor linked othere then to edit the material in the feauter manager.

Just had to post this to see others thoughts on this.
