Description

Is your feature request related to a problem?

MaskPass seems to be missing from v7. Not sure if by design or not. Didn't find any relevant info in the roadmap.

Describe the solution you'd like

MaskPass should be in v7, I feel like the design was very clear in v6.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I'm considering implementing it myself based on the v6 example, but unsure if there's a different way to achieve the same thing (using the stencil buffer).

Research direction

Start by comparing the v6 MaskPass example with the v7 post-processing implementation and its stencil-buffer support. Determine whether the v6 design still applies, then implement the v7 equivalent and verify that MaskPass provides the requested masking behavior without a documented alternative.
