  • Changing colour of individual words in Mograph

    Posted by James Simpson on August 6, 2013 at 12:37 pm

    Hi there. Thanks for looking at this post.
    I’m trying to learn C4D and I’m stuck on a seemingly simple thing but as my knowledge of C4D is limited I’m stuck.
    I’m using Mograph text and then it’s breaking up using the Greyscale Gorilla Transform plug-in.
    I would love to know how you change the material colour for different words. Not changing the edge etc (c1) but the whole word.
    Any advice would be really appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Use separate Mograph Text Objects, or make the Mograph Text Object editable and change the colors for each letter.

    Take a close look at the MoText properties. By default effectors are applied separately to each letter, but you can instead apply them to individual words or lines of text. It’s just a matter of dragging the effector into the word tab.

    Hi Dan and Adam,
    Thank you for taking the time to respond.
    The client is constantly changing their minds about the wording so make it editable might not be practical.
    In terms of the motext options. I’ve seen the words/lines tabs but I don’t know how you select the different sections.
    Kind regards,
    Jimmy
