Hi Chris,

I was wondering if you had some time to do a few quick doodles, if you'd
consider the following:

In:
https://wiki.povray.org/content/Reference:Isosurface
it states:
"New in version 3.8 a potential pattern has been added to define a pattern based
on the potential field of a blob or isosurface object. See also: Potential
Pattern."

Reference:Potential Pattern

New in version 3.8 a potential pattern has been added to define a pattern based
on the potential field of a blob or isosurface object.

Using pigment in the following example, the syntax for the new pattern is as
follows:

pigment {
  potential { BLOB | ISOSURFACE }
  [threshold BOOL]
  [PIGMENT_MODIFIERS...]
  }


Perhaps you could do a pigment {function {your_sdf (x, y, z)}} and render a
plane with that pigment pattern for each of your SDFs?

Just an idea,

- BE
