You don't have to create a mesh. Meshes are colored per vertex, that's why you don't get a different color per object. If you input a list of colors in the mesh component, every color will be assigned to a vertex, not to an object. > Ah... I realized that my angle of rotation is some set of some crazy > numbers... I have to scale somehow this array to the level of 0-1/2. You really don't have to scale it to the same range as me, just change the upper and lower limits of the gradient component so that it matches the maximum and minimum values of the list of numbers you are using. > Is it possible to make a function (without Vb) which will find > corresponding values that i have, lets say array of numbers from 3.xxx > to 7.xxx in irregular steps, on the scale from 0 to 1/2 ? You mean 0 to 1/2*PI. You could do it by math or use the 'graphmapper' component. Set the graph type to linear, double click on it to open the graph editor and set the x interval as 3.xxx to 7.xxx and the y interval as 0 to 1/2*PI. > And can I bake this shader? or is there a way to get it colored in > render. Not yet I'm afraid, but you can capture the viewport to an image file. If you use the -ViewCaptureToFile command you can specify the output resolution. You can also use the 'testsetaalevel' command to improve the quality. But still it can't be compared to an actual render.
