Sort particles based on distance from scene object - Tim007 - 01-26-2026
Hi,
I know I can sort particles based on position on X, Y or Z. But is it possible to sort particles based on distance from scene object.
I thought it will be easy but there is no such option in Custom Properties.
Thank you.

You can save distance to object using a Surface Test (you can set the channel where distances will be saved in the Test rollout).
