3D Viewport Mask (New v1.1):
- Mask Creation: Easily generate masks based on curves or meshes.
- Compositing in 3D Viewport: Perform compositing directly within the 3D Viewport.
- Diverse Mask Settings: Access various mask settings for enhanced control.
- Layer Stacking: Combine multiple mask layers for intricate masking effects.
Plane Subdivisions:
- The plane can have a different aspect ratio while importing an image as a plane. Thus using the Subdivision modifier does not give uniform grid divisions. This tool allows subdividing the plane by considering the aspect ratio, producing uniform grid divisions, which are essential for the 3D Viewport Mask.
