v0.42

Pattern using truchet tiling in a hexagonal arrangement.

This operator produces different types of values from the grid depending on the selected Pattern.

Truchet patterns involve a curving path through a grid (in this case hexagonal), where the path is always uninterrupted, but may sometimes form closed loops.

Based on hexagonal truchet by FabriceNeyret2.

See details about Truchet tiles.

Parameters

Name	Description	Regular Handling	Read-Only Handling
Pattern	What type of values to produce from the grid.	Baked	Baked
Default (FabriceNeyret2): Produces float values with 1 for the path and 0 for the space around the path. Variant 1 (Shane): Produces float values with multiple stripes going through the path. Variant 2 (Shane): Produces vectors with colors using stripes along the path. Currently these colors are fixed and unchangeable.
Seed	Seed number used to control the randomization of the path.	Runtime	Baked
Translate	Moves the entire pattern.	Runtime	Baked
Size	Scales the pattern.	Runtime	Baked

Inputs

• Coordinate Field: (optional) Field that produces vectors that the pattern uses as coordinates instead of regular spatial position. Only the X and Y parts are used.
  • Coordinate Types: vec2 vec3
  • Context Types: Context MaterialContext CameraContext LightContext RayContext ParticleContext VertexContext PixelContext
  • Return Types: vec4
