Hi All ,
When I combine multiple different colored surfaces , I want their colors to stay the same.
like this ,
but normal rhino command when I join the surfaces automatically assign one color. I want mutiple color per face.
I will be grateful if you could help me.
I second this request. Would be nice to be able to assign materials like this too
Hi -
You attached the python tag to your topic. Is this a scripting question?
Just to make sure, do you know that you can assign different display colors to different surfaces in a polysurface?
-wim
I added that it can also be solved with python.
you are right I want to do exactly that. How can I assign different display color surfaces in a polysurface ?
Sub-object select them (Ctrl+Shift+Click) and assign a color or material as you normally would.
ah ok it looks good thank you. Is there a way to do this in grasshopper (parameticly ) ?
No idea. Maybe via Elefront… haven’t tried.
Note also - there is a discussion of whether Join should respect “Per-Face Colors” - it’s not all that simple and not yet resolved.

ok thank you for all support
It might benefit the decision process on this join issue for you to add your thoughts here, as a user with real-world requirements for this capability. After reviewing the jet brains issue details, of course.
Hi!
It seems it doesn’t work with version 6 of Rhino…
That is correct, per-face color was added in V7.
It works perfectly in Rhino 8, but in Rhino 7 it does not have the option of assigning custom display color to a face. Is there a way around it?
It does here in V7… How are you assigning the color?
I am working in Rhino 7, (Ctrl+Shift+Click) and do not have that option either.
Hi Jaclyn -
Can you please provide more details about how you are trying to set such color?
Also, please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here.
-wim
It worked in R7, I was not assigning it correctly. Rhino8 has a better UI. Great upgrade
