Do any of you know how to dissolve an surface by its distance to an object?

Thanks in advance.

Hi ruuterdetuuter,
a simply trick could be to use dirt map node in opacity slot.

Thanks for the suggestion, I was hoping to control it by a NULL objects, this so I can erase objects and appear new ones.

The plugin supports the object properties "Object Dissolve" feature. Perhaps you could build an expression in the "E" envelope tool to control this value and reference it to a distance to a null object.

Thanks,
