Enabling multiple materials on canvas renderer
I need to apply multiple shader effects to the UI image. To do this I decided to capitalise on the CanvasRenderer's multiple materials support and created this script:
public class MaterialImage : RawImage
{
public Texture2D tex;
public Material[] materials;
protected override void UpdateMaterial()
{
canvasRenderer.materialCount = materials.Length;
for (int index = 0; index < materials.Length; index++) {
canvasRenderer.SetMaterial(materials[index], index);
}
canvasRenderer.SetTexture(tex);
}
}
Although, this applyes only one material, the first one in the array. The questions are:
1. How to make multiple materials work with the Canvas Renderer?
2. Are there better ways to apply multiple shaders to the UI image?
Thanks in advance!
Hello!
It seems multiple materials are something about material per submesh. But I try to implement several submesh per CanvasRenderer holder and it looks wrong. I have the first submesh visible only.
Anybody knows what am I doing wrong?
Since the mesh is drawn at once. So it is impossible to have multiple materials on a single UI.
