Make multiple objects renderer off

Question

Hi, i've come into a problem of having to turn off the renderer of multiple objects. What I mean by that is i've downloaded a model and in the prefab there are a large amount of objects each with a Mesh renderer and i'm wondering how to turn all of them off at once. If even possible. I've tried using

var popup : GameObject[]; 2. var trigger : GameObject; 3. function OnTriggerEnter(col : Collider){ 4. if(col.tag == "Player"){ 5. popup.renderer.enabled = true; 6. } 7. } 8. function OnTriggerExit(){ 9. popup.renderer.enabled = false; 10. Destroy(trigger); 11. }

and ends up saying "Assets/aScript/Popupp.js(13,15): BCE0019: 'renderer' is not a member of 'UnityEngine.GameObject[]'. "

is there any possible way of actually doing what i'm trying to do? I'm willing to provide more details if needed.

You can't access an Array like that. You need to loop through the array.

 for (var i = 0; i < popup.length; i++){
 popup[i].renderer.enabled = false;
 }
 
 //same for enabling
 
 for (var i = 0; i < popup.length; i++){
 popup[i].renderer.enabled = true;
 }

Good luck :)
