Highlight similar vertices by vertex color

Coding Python Support

Hi,
I have a mesh object with specific data information displayed by various vertex colors. In my case, each color value represents a specific time point from red (earliest) to purple (latest).

Now, I would like to make an animation in a way that all vertices with the same color data light up at the same time.

And finally I would like to automate the process in a python script, if possible.

At the moment I’m not really sure how to solve this problem. Hope anyone can help

Thanks for your fast reply!
Yes, something like this :slight_smile: The highlighting looks great!

So basically there are three parts of the problem:

  1. Select all vertices with the same color
  2. Adjust the highlighting only to these vertices and at the same time if possible
  3. Store the highlighting as keyframe for animation
    → Repeat for the next color value

Finally I want to export the animation as *glb, but this should hopefully not be a problem

This is an example of how the object looks
