Spline Mask Rectangle

[Derick Joe]

Sorry, one more question for you, Brian. What if I wanted to mask out a group of objects? For example, I have text layer which is inside an Extrude NURBS which is attached to a Fracture with a Plain Effector. I want to add a rectangle spline mask and reveal this text. Do I group the text with the Extrube Nurbs and Fracture together and then place that group in a Spline Mask with the Rectangle? This is what I thought you would do, but when I do this, the rectangle has no effect. I’ve double checked my mode and none seem to do anything.

the spline mask combines/masks splines only – you probably want to use a Boole object instead so instead of masking with a spline you create your objects and ‘mask them with a Boole and a Cube much the same way as you were doing with the spline and rectangle.
