Objective tool, changing profile color

[Anonymous]

Hi, I just started to use objective add-on, and I was wondering how can I make one profile but change the color on the sides and the front and back color of the profile. In this case, (I attached an image) you can see that it's a complex profile and I want to make the top and bottom of the profile with different material that the rest of the body.

Thanks

If you have questions about OBJECTiVE, you can contact Encina directly for support.

In answer to your question, make the profile from as many different parts as you require materials for. In this case you would need 3 parts - top, middle, and base - so split the profile fill into 3 parts. Then make a profile object for each part. Make sure the anchor is on the same position for all the parts - then they will act as one when you use tools like Bend and Offset (see attached image).

Thanks, that's a good solution
