Inline defined materials don't appear properly

I am confused...

1. same color for a single shape is shown differently.

2. inner 3D view in gdl (during scripting, testing) and general 3D view in project doesn't match.

Originally I wanted to define some materials, so despite AC language version or template, objects would look the same. Maybe there's another approach?

pen 1 _si=15 define material 'purpleUniqName' 2, 1, 0, 1 define material 'whiteUniqName' 1, 1, 1, 1,! surface RGB [0.0..1.0] 1, ! ambient coefficient [0.0..1.0] 1, ! diffuse coefficient [0.0..1.0] 1, ! specular coeff. [0.0..1.0] 0, ! transparent coeff. [0.0..1.0] 0, ! shining [0.0..100.0] 0 ! transparency atten. [0.0..4.0] matWhite = IND (MATERIAL, 'whiteUniqName') matPurple = IND (MATERIAL, 'purpleUniqName') ! material 'purpleUniqName' ! block 1,1,1 ! purple cube OK add 2,2, 0 REVOLVE{2} 2, 0, 360, 4 + 8 + 256, matWhite, ! NOT OK -> receive purple colour from ABOVE !? if comment those 2 rows 0, 0.5, 0, matWhite, ! if matWhite=18 (instead of inline definition) 2, 0.5, 0, matWhite add 2, 2, 0 cprism_{3} matPurple, matPurple, matPurple, 0, ! SHOULD be purple prism, though it has white sides 5, 2, 0, 0, 0, _si, matPurple, 0, 1, 0, _si, matPurple, 1, 1, 0, _si, matPurple, 1, 0, 0, _si, matPurple, 0, 0, 0, -1, matPurple add 2, 2, 0 cprism_{3} matWhite, matWhite, matWhite, 0, ! SHOULD be white cube with yellow top&bottom 5, 2, 0, 0, 0, _si, matWhite, 0, 1, 0, _si, matWhite, 1, 1, 0, _si, matWhite, 1, 0, 0, _si, matWhite, 0, 0, 0, -1, matWhite ! add 2,2, 0 ! material 'whiteUniqName' ! block 1,1,1 ! white cube OK

Should have used Cprism{4} and revolve{5} instead
