Materials

This example simplifies the Getting Started cube by using the Square class.

# Use the Square class instead of points !
    square = Square.from_center_and_side(s.origin, 20)

We can also use the Material class to set different materials for the part.

# Setting the material
    mat = Material()
    mat.set_diffuse_color("purple")
    cube.set_material(mat)

The Material class allows us to set the color and properties of the part. We can set the color using the mat.set_diffuse_color function, which accepts a color name or using RGB values (e.g. mat.set_diffuse_colorRGB(255, 255, 255)).

Actually, if you just want to change the color of a part you can also use cube.paint('blue').
