Purpose¶

The SoPathTracerMaskVolume module provides an 8bit mask volume, that can be used by a SoPathTracerVolume and SoPathTracerVolumeInstance to mask the volume. A typical use-case is to use it together with SoVolumeCutting, which can provide a mask volume interactively.

A mask volume has a Volume Name. This name can be used in multiple SoPathTracerVolume and SoPathTracerVolumeInstance modules by specifying the volumeName as maskVolume.
