Re: change face colour of 3D extruded text in Red 4

Hi,

So what you need to do is to click on the text track, which brings the parameters that affect the text into the controls window. Then in the controls window, select the materials tab. In the materials tab set the face count to 1, which gives all 4 sides of the text object a uniform color. Then click on the color chip and set that to the color that you are trying to match.

To replace the gradient with a video clip, click on the orange gradient that is at the right most side of the gradient track. This will display a pop-up window with replacement media options, including video (Movie File). Select the Movie File option and a pop-up will appear prompting you to select a media clip. Navigate to the director containing the clip and you should be all set.

Cheers,

Peter.
