Cross Hatch
Updated: 24 Feb 2025
Add a cross hatch effect to an image.
Cross Hatch
Method #
This node adds a cross hatch effect. The image is broken up by brightness, and hatch texture is sectioned and overlaid onto the image. The brightness of the section in the original image determines which part of the hatch texture will be overlaid into that section.
The example below has had a hatch texture applied, the effect doesn’t work without a hatch texture selected and by default, none is applied.
Input Image
Parameters
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
Parameter Details Active
Enables or disables the effect. Disabling the effect means it will no longer compute, so disabling a node when not in use can improve performance.
Blend Amount
Changes the opacity of the new effect over the original image.
Blend Mode (RGB)
Change how the generated effect blends with the parent image RGB.
Blend Mode (Alpha)
Change how the generated effect blends with the parent image alpha.
Affected Channels
Toggle which of the RGBA channels are affected by the effect.
Hatch Texture
The texture used as a hatch pattern.
Intensity
The intensity of the effect that is applied.
Amount
Change how strong the efffect is on the input image.
Hatch Texture Scale
Change the scale of the cross hatching on the image.
Animation Rate
The speed at which the cross hatching is animated.
Inputs
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
