# Node Options

## Node Options

Advanced Dissolve node has two optional inputs:

#### **User Defined Cutout**

Advanced Dissolve shaders calculate cutout effect from **Standard** maps or using **Geometric** equations. With this option can be define custom cutout rule and it can be made active from the material, from the **Cutout** -> **Standard** group by enabling **User Defined** option:

For example, this will create self animated Voronoi cutout effect:

#### **User Defined Edge Color**&#x20;

Allows to use custom color for dissolve edge visualization. If node uses this input, it can be made active in the generated shader by enabling **User Defined** option in the **Edge** -> **Additional Color** group:
