See Apply a material to multiple facets simultaneously.
2. In the Material section of the 3D Text section of the Text inspector, click the Material
pop-up menu and choose Single.

Material controls
Intro to Material controls in Final Cut Pro
The preset or custom materials you apply to 3D text are made up of one or more material
layers—Substance, Paint, Finish, Distress, and so on—that combine to create a complex
texture. When you select a 3D title, its material layers appear in the Material section of the
3D Text section of the Text inspector, stacked under the Material preview thumbnail.
You can adjust the parameter controls in each of these material layers to modify the texture
applied to your 3D title. For a complete list of controls in each type of material layer, see
the following topics:
• Substance controls in Final Cut Pro
• Paint controls in Final Cut Pro
• Finish controls in Final Cut Pro
• Distress controls in Final Cut Pro
• Emit controls in Final Cut Pro
• Placement controls in Final Cut Pro
