MoGraph Tracer stop/continue tracing sequentially?
I am tracing cloned objects that disappear occasionally, and want the Tracer to trace lines only when the clones appear. The Tracer actually stops tracing the objects as soon as they disappear. But when they reappear, the Tracer connects the last traced point with the new one with a long straight line. Is it possible to avoid this? What I want to achieve is similar to a pen that only make strokes when it touches the paper (but in 3 dimensions with multiple objects).

How are you making the objects disappear/reappear?

Attached an example scene. It’s simplified, the clones visibility is controlled by a Shader Effector.
9992_tracerproblem.c4d.zipIn the original scene, particles emitting from a character mesh based on a velocity map (or directly from the skeleton joints). If body parts moving faster, particles are emitted from the corresponding vertex. But the traced fast sequences are always being connected by lines that bridging the “invisible” slow time. I need to avoid this bridging connections and get real gaps. Thanks for any suggestions.
