This is my first Cinema 4D plug-in. Originally I made it for Xpresso heavy users. This plug-in makes changing node’s Experimental
Field
color easy. Just select nodes and click what color you want to use. You can also load and save custom color palettes. Fusion
You can also colorise objects and add objects to layers. Plug-in works also with Redshift shader graph editor’s nodes. General Talk
Generator
Html
When you are chaning Xpresso node colors, Xpresso tag has to be selected, otherwise plug-in wont colorise nodes.
JavaScript
And when you are changing Redshift nodes, the Redshift material has to be selected. Also make sure that you have MoGraph
enabled these in the options (File > Options)! Octane
Plug-in
Premiere Pro
Installation: Processing
Place Colorise plug-in to your appdata plug-in folder to make it work properly (avoid permission errors), since plug-in Python
has to write and read presets and options files. Redshift
