I am playing with the Text layer style 3 Z-slices style (and the other slices styles). It offers (for me) new possibilities.
But the Z-slices caught my special attention. Is it possible to an effect similar as RainbowText.cfx but now a different color for each Z-slice?
Something like this:

This can be done with the Special\UVMapper effect. In the above screenshot I used the Cartoon_Bright.png texture from the installer. The FX PLANAR MAPPING prop is set to 1. The FX TEXTURE POSITION and FX TEXTURE SIZE props must be fine-tuned to use one colour per slice.

Ah I got it:
1. Rotation of the text has no effect the alignment of the texture stays good
2. Character rotation: the alignment of the texture goes lost
3. Twist: the alignment of the texture goes lost
Nb Font size gives a problem but can be solved to change the texture size.

Functionality will be added to the effect to make possible what you are looking for. Thank you for your request!
But to be honest, I think your screenshots look super funky, especially the middle one. Much more exciting than the above "correct" one. You should try to exploit this wild chaotic new style!!!
