Once you reach the texturing stage for a Prototype asset, you will have the option to use the Fill Colour tool to colour your asset. Once you click on "Manual fill colour," the fill colour tool will open up on the left panel. Here, you can apply colours to each of your model's meshes. There are three of ways to select a colour: * Use our colour palette * Enter the hexadecimal or RGB values of your desired colour * Get exact colours from your sample image or uploaded image by clicking anywhere on the input image ### Custom |

To colour a mesh, pick a colour using any of the provided methods. Then, click on the part of the mesh that you want to add the colour to. The mesh will be highlighted with a light red outline.

Repeat the process until you have applied colour to all the desired meshes.

--- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.kaedim3d.com/creating-assets/prototype-assets/manual-fill-colour.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
