              How to change value from shader
Hello,
I have this shader, that give an outline siluete to an object. How can I access the color from it via script?
I tried matMesh.renderer.material."_OutlineColor" = Color.yellow; but it didn't work
 Shader "Outlined/Silhouetted Diffuse" {
     Properties {
         _Color ("Main Color", Color) = (.5,.5,.5,1)
         _OutlineColor ("Outline Color", Color) = (0,0,0,1)
         _Outline ("Outline width", Range (0.0, 0.03)) = .005
         _MainTex ("Base (RGB)", 2D) = "white" { }
     }

 #include "UnityCG.cginc"
  
 struct appdata {
     float4 vertex : POSITION;
     float3 normal : NORMAL;
 };
  
 struct v2f {
     float4 pos : POSITION;
     float4 color : COLOR;
 };
  
 uniform float _Outline;
 uniform float4 _OutlineColor;
  
 v2f vert(appdata v) {
     // just make a copy of incoming vertex data but scaled according to normal direction
     v2f o;
     o.pos = mul(UNITY_MATRIX_MVP, v.vertex);
  
     float3 norm   = mul ((float3x3)UNITY_MATRIX_IT_MV, v.normal);
     float2 offset = TransformViewToProjection(norm.xy);
  
     o.pos.xy += offset * o.pos.z * _Outline;
     o.color = _OutlineColor;
     return o;
 }
