### Editor

Keeping the end user's focus on relevant components during configuration is paramount to your brand's intended user experience. With the goal of reducing model correction, we have introduced the **Matte Mask Operator** for materials.

By using objects with this material in a WebGL experience, you can now mask out any objects that may interfere with the visual experience. Hence, if an end user rotates a product, they will only see components that are relevant to that view.

In any material, the **Matte Mask Operator** can be applied to it.

Once applied to a mesh will mask out anything behind the mesh, allowing you to focus the experience towards the key points of the model.
