**OD External Surface Override** lets you override a surface with an external surface library file.  The plugin is a Layout Master Plugin.

Options:

  * External Surface Directory: Defines the location where the surface libraries are stored
  * Exact Match: This option enables the update only when the name of the object, and surface match
  * Copy: Defines whether you want to match by ID or name of the surface in the library file
  * Override All : Allows for all surfaces to be overwritten by the Override Library Name
  * Override Lib Name: This library will override all others.
  * Update Events: Defines when the surface updates will happen.  Timeline changes, depending on how many surfaces, can sometimes decrease performance.

Here's a how-to video showing OD External Surface Override in action.
