multi material on single particle - Giggling_Squid - 08-04-2021

Hi All! 

I've just started using Tyflow so sorry for my ignorance! 

I have a particle system which references Geometry for its shape, each individual particle is referencing a group which contains 2 separate parts. 
Is there a way to make these two parts have different materials? 

I've attached pictures of the reference geometry     

and the particles,     

I can apply a material to the tyflow object but then they are all the same, and I can apply a material ID operator but that still treats the whole particle as a single object and applies a different material to different particles. 


Any advise would be greatly appreciated!

Maybe look into your Shape operator, all the way to the bottom. Inherit material from reference.

Otherwise, set up a multisub material with proper ID on your object, and you can apply that to your tyflow object.
