Recolor shelf polygons individually in different colors

[magicteddy]

Hi,

Your original question did not mention the need to bake those colored elements.

You can have a look at plugin Elefront, available on Package Manager.

Each polygon should have a different color

What are you calling a polygon in your case ?

If you want some entities to have some colors, you need to model those entities as one solid object. Right now you rmodel contains blocks with several triangular facets.

And finally :

colored glass.

With display materials, you’re not gonna get much further than adding some transparency. If you really need to render this using Rhino glass materials, this is more complicated.

Create a material from python in grasshopper?

Is it possible to create a new material from gh with python. And then apply the material to an object and bake the object with the material applied?

Or define some materials in Rhino first and assign them to your objects with Elefront. But not veru practical if you really need a lot of different colors. If you have about 10 samples that should be fine.
