Is there a way to get the distance value of the point being rendered in the output function (Channel plugin) and the camera?

I tried to use vd->dist but this seemed not to deliver the real distance.

Just take vd->GetCameraMatrix()->GetV0() to get the camera's position and then measure the distance to vd->p.
