With the Corona Slicer Material, you can use any object in your scene to cut away parts of another object where they intersect.

This is a render-time effect so it will not change the actual geometry.

Caps

Enable – This enables or disables generating caps for the sliced geometry.

Use cap material – This enables or disables the cap material specified in the "Material" slot. If disabled, the original object's material will be used for the caps. 

Material – In this slot, you can define the material for the capped surface. It can be enabled or disabled using the "Use cap material" checkbox. 

 

Include/Exclude

 

Mode – This parameter defines the use of the below objects list.

Available modes are:

  • Include
  • Exclude

Objects – Use this list to include or exclude scene objects that will be affected by the slicing geometry. If the mode is set to Exclude and the list is empty, the Slicer material will slice any object intersecting with it. 

Include children – If the slicing geometry is a group (using a null object as the parent) or an object that contains nested elements, enabling this option will include them all if you assign the Corona Slicer Material to the group (null object) or parent geometry.
