Hi there :)

Can anybody tell me how to add an attribute to a shader so that the user can choose a color, over and above the built in ones? I've already added a vector type attribute, but apart from that I'd like it to have the colour sample box next to it, that will launch the colour chooser when clicked.

Any help much appreciated.
Thank you

Amy

if you have a shader named "lambert3" and want to add a color attribute named "color2" use these commands:

addAttr -uac -ln color2 -at float3 lambert3;
addAttr -ln color2X -at "float" -p color2 lambert3;
addAttr -ln color2Y -at "float" -p color2 lambert3;
addAttr -ln color2Z -at "float" -p color2 lambert3;

-uac means "use as color"
