#Is it possible to have AND clipping instead of OR clipping?

When I enter two clipping IDs for an Art Mesh, the mesh shows whenever it overlaps with just one of the clipping items. Can I make it so that the mesh only shows when it overlaps with both items? If so, how?

#

If it helps, here's the specific thing I'm trying to do. The shading and the big highlight for each eye is supposed to be clipped to an invisible mask so it doesn't go past the outline of the iris.

However, I also want it to clip to the sclera, or else this will happen.

Unfortunately, when I try clipping to both the mask and the sclera, I get the worst of both worlds. Not only are the meshes visible when the eye is closed, but they go past the outline of the iris when the eye is open.

If I clip to just the sclera, the eye looks great when closed, but there's still the issue when the eye is open.

what you are asking its not possible, there are other ways to approach this with invert masking workaround

#

but i want to ask first is there something to gain for separating highlights and masking them instead of merging them? cuz the workaround involved might not be worth it

#

looking at the simplistic style you have there

#

you can also consider adding an eyelid layer to save trouble for masking the pupil to sclera

Also, I want there to be a parameter to make all shading/highlights disappear so the eyes go completely blank.

#

I could do the latter without masking, though. As for the former, maybe I shouldn’t bother. I’m using the free version, so I might not have enough parameters to implement eye physics

#

Thanks for the feedback!

#

yea for typical eye physics stuff you mentioned you dont really need the highlights etc masked to the pupil, just clip everything to the sclera

#

still worth a try even using a free version tho even if its just a single eye physics parameter cat_thumb_up_1

Even though I found a way to sidestep this issue entirely, here’s a tutorial on how to actually do AND clipping! For future reference https://twitter.com/endcsline/status/1511044982542684164

Double clipping:
here's a solution to the double clipping:
R(ed), B(lue), G(green)

Draw order:
R
G
B

Clipping:
R invert clips B
G clips R
B clips R

There you go, double clipping.
