I am trying to do the same thing with a fluid simulation sequence loaded in layout using object replacement. I need a specific area of the simulation to be a different color from the rest, and this area changes position during the animation. The position is represented by an animated null, where I want the color change to be. I have tried all sorts of different projection methods but just can't seem to get it to look right. I have been using a bitmap with a gradient and tried a couple variations such as a radial gradient in the center, and a linear gradient. I attempted to use "clamp" for the tiling method so the gradient ramp isn't repeated. I've spent a lot of hours with no success. Hoping for some tips as I need to get this client work rendering ASAP!
