Setting Color of Individual Yarn

[krouf@purdue.edu]

Dear TexGen Members,

I am trying to create a layered textile using the latest TexGen model. In my model, I want to assign different colors to yarns according to a pattern. Can you please tell me how could I control color of individual yarn in TexGen?

Regards,
Khizar

Hi Zhizar,

TexGen isn't designed to be able to be able to design colour patterns for weaves. You can change the colours in the renderer but this will only take effect until a change takes place which requires the weave to be rerendered, eg if you select one of the yarns. For example the code below will set yarn 0 to grey.

Code: Select all

rw = GetRenderWindow()
rw.SetYarnColour(0, COLOR(128,128,128))  # First parameter is yarn index

Sorry that's probably not exactly what you want to do but it's the best that can be done with the current version of the software.
Best wishes,
Louise
